The New York Giants are preparing for a game in London against the Los Angeles Rams. But at least on Wednesday, that preparation did not include star receiver Odell Beckham Jr.
Zach Braziller of The New York Post reported that Beckham missed practice on Wednesday.
Odell Beckham Jr. wasn't out at practice. Hip issue. #giants

Braziller also quoted coach Ben McAdoo, saying that Beckham is “pretty sore.”
The Giants and their fans are obviously hoping that Beckham is active and 100 percent on Sunday. Beckham is beginning to heat up. He’s caught three touchdowns over his last two games and tallied eight passes for 222 yards and two scores in Week 6’s win over the Baltimore Ravens. Most of that came after OBJ suffered the aforementioned hip injury.
It also looks like every game will matter for New York on its quest to make the playoffs. The Giants are only 3-3 and currently in the middle of what looks to be a crowded NFC Playoff race.
