The Facts: All the Giants will say about the condition of Beckham is that "he's got an ankle." According to Gil Brandt of SiriusXM NFL Radio, Beckham is going to be in Phoenix today for the first in a series of Thera-Lase treatments, similar to a process Jared Allen underwent before playing in Super Bowl 50, after Allen missed the NFC Championship Game with a broken foot.
Diehards Line:
While the results of the treatment are yet to be seen, there is a concern among Giants officials that Beckham could miss the regular season opener, according to Ralph Vacchiano of SNY. During a Thursday appearance with the FootballDiehards on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio, NJ.com's James Kratch expressed those same concerns. But as Profootballtalk.com notes, that could depend on the laser. According to Phoenix Thera-Lase’s website, the treatment is done from a “portable laser bio-stimulation device,” and “delivers concentrated laser-light energy to the cellular level of the body” to reduce inflammation and help heal soft-tissue injuries.
