Vikings Sign Beckham to Practice Squad as Jefferson Injury Exposes Receiver Depth Issues

The Minnesota Vikings signed veteran receiver Odell Beckham Jr. to their practice squad on October 7, 2026, following his release by the New York Giants. The move addresses a critical shortage of receiving options while star Justin Jefferson recovers from an ankle injury. Beckham, 33, had zero catches in three games with the Giants. The Vikings hope Beckham can provide a spark behind Jordan Addison and potentially challenge underperforming starter Jauan Jennings.

Beckham Joins Vikings Practice Squad, Takes Over No. 9

Odell Beckham Jr. signed with the Minnesota Vikings practice squad on Wednesday, taking over No. 9 after the team traded quarterback J.J. McCarthy. The move addresses a thin receiving corps following an ankle injury to star wide receiver Justin Jefferson. Beckham was released by the New York Giants on September 29 after recording zero catches in three games. Although the Vikings are 4-0, they rank last in the NFL in passing yards, limiting Beckham's immediate impact. He will compete for a roster spot while the team navigates offensive struggles and potential quarterback changes.

Vikings Sign Beckham to Practice Squad Amid Jefferson Injury

The Minnesota Vikings have signed 33-year-old wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. to their practice squad following his release by the New York Giants. The move addresses a thin receiving corps caused by an ankle injury to star Justin Jefferson. Beckham, a three-time Pro Bowler, had minimal playing time in New York, recording only one target in three games before being cut. The Vikings, currently 4-0, are last in the NFL in passing yards and rely heavily on a run-heavy offense. Beckham’s signing provides depth while Jefferson recovers, though his fantasy value remains limited due to the team’s offensive structure.

NFLRA Challenges Disproportionate Suspensions for Seeman and Hill After Week 4 Confrontations

The NFL Referees Association is formally contesting the severity of suspensions handed to officials Jeff Seeman and Adrian Hill. Seeman received a two-game ban for cursing at Trey McBride, while Hill was suspended for one game after a collision with Eric Wilson. The NFLRA argues the penalties lack precedent and fail to account for the verbal abuse officials routinely face, though the NFLPA maintains that officials must meet the same professional standards as players.
