Smith-Schuster is a nine-year veteran with 481 receptions for 5,624 yards and 33 TDs (including time with the Steelers, Chiefs, and Patriots), and joins a receiver group that has already been bolstered by Odell Beckham Jr. and Braxton Berrios.

An SB Nation opinion piece argues Jaxson Dart’s choice to appear with President Trump was his right, but it has sparked backlash within the Giants’ locker room, notably from Abdul Carter, who challenges Dart’s motives and how teammates view him. The article notes the long history of uneven consequences for athletes of color who engage in politics, contrasts that with the relatively minor PR fallout Dart has faced, and says the Giants want to move past the controversy as they focus on the 2026 season, with Dart and backup QB Jameis Winston working to unite the team.
The New York Giants signed Odell Beckham Jr., reuniting the former star with the team and inserting him into a reshaped wide receiver depth chart that includes Malik Nabers, Darius Slayton, Darnell Mooney, Braxton Berrios, Jalin Hyatt, JuJu Smith-Schuster and more; the Giants reportedly had about $10.5 million in cap space. Beckham last played in 2024 with the Dolphins and was suspended for six games in 2025 for a PED violation, and he previously spent 2014-18 with the Giants, where he ranks No. 2 on the franchise’s all-time receiving list.

Odell Beckham Jr. will reportedly have a second workout for the New York Giants, signaling continued interest from both sides as speculation grows about a potential reunion. Beckham, who enjoyed multiple 1,000-yard seasons with the Giants early in his career and has battled injuries in recent years, hinted at unfinished business with the team after a charity appearance. In 2024 he posted nine catches for 55 yards with the Dolphins, and Giants coach John Harbaugh has noted the decision must be right for both Beckham and the team. The Giants have also seen roster changes, including Gunner Olszewski’s torn Achilles, and Malik Nabers’ readiness for the 2026 season remains uncertain. The second workout underscores that a return is far from guaranteed but remains a real possibility.)
