Odell Beckham Jr. taking J.J. McCarthy's number after joining Vikings

Odell Beckham Jr. has joined the Minnesota Vikings practice squad following his recent release from the New York Giants.

During his brief three-game stint back with New York, the veteran wide receiver failed to record a single reception. In a notable detail regarding his arrival in Minnesota, Beckham has opted to wear the jersey number previously assigned to quarterback J.J.

McCarthy. The move reunites the receiver with head coach Kevin O'Connell, who previously served as his offensive coordinator with the Los Angeles Rams.
