Odell Beckham with a modest 36 yards in Giants loss

Odell Beckham, active in Week 2 coming off a preseason high ankle sprain, managed just 36 yards on four receptions in the Giants' uninspired 24-10 loss to the Lions on Monday night. Beckham, clearly not 100%, was targeted just five times by Eli Manning who continued to deal with a collapsing pocket and struggling OL.
Fantasy Impact:
There will be better days for Beckham as he continues to recover from the lingering ankle issue. Provided there were no setbacks, Beckham should be close to 100% in Week 3 as the Giants travel to take on the Eagles. A bigger concern to Beckham's 2017 fantasy productivity than the lingering injury is the dreaded Giants OL which has been horrific so far. It gets no easier for the Giants OL in Week 3 when they face a tough Eagles DL. If the OL continues to struggle, Beckham's performance could take a hit with Eli Manning literally running for his life on most passing plays. That said, Beckham remains a top-tier WR1 in all formats.
