Odell Beckham Jr. Can Play Kicker, Too
We already know that New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is an unbelievable athlete. That was reconfirmed last week when he made a mind-boggling one-handed touchdown catch that set the Internet ablaze. But apparently catching touchdown passes isn’t enough for Beckham—he likes to kick field goals, too.
While he was messing around at the Giants practice facility this past weekend, cameras caught Beckham as he effortlessly spun a football on the ground, took a couple of short steps and booted it clear through the uprights.
The guy’s essentially a one-man field goal unit. Don’t worry about a bad snap or a botched hold; just let Beckham stand back there and do it all himself! To be fair, I’m not sure if this qualifies as a legal drop kick, since the rules state that the ball must be kicked “as, or immediately after, it touches the ground.”
Regardless of whether it’s legal, the spin-kick adds to the incredible legend of Odell Beckham Jr. Be sure to check out the video player above for bonus footage of Beckham’s incredible one-handed catch warm-up.
