The Facts: The Giants officially start their offseason program on Monday, but Manning has once again gathered offensive players in Durham, North Carolina to work with coach at Ole Miss, David Cutcliffe. Social media posts show that WRs Brandon Marshall, Roger Lewis and Sterling Shepard, TE Evan Engram and RB Wayne Gallman are on hand to start working before the whole team will gather for OTAs next week.
Diehards Line:Odell Beckham isn’t present in any of those social media posts and is thought to be in Los Angeles rehabbing his ankle. He missed last year’s session after having oral surgery before skipping the team’s voluntary offseason work. There’s been talk that he’ll follow the same plan this offseason, although Beckham has not made any pronouncements about his intentions. Meanwhile, Marshall’s presence is notable as there’s been plenty of speculation that the veteran will be cut loose once he’s healthy enough to pass a physical after last year’s ankle injury. That would save the team $5.1 million in cap space, although there’s also a chance they could try to persuade him to stick around at a lower salary.
