The long-awaited matchup between Josh Norman and Odell Beckham Jr. started off with fireworks on Sunday.
Here, you see Norman, now a member of the Washinton Redskins, give the New York Giants’ top receiver a free ride in the end zone.
A lot has been made about this specific matchup since the two went at it big time when Norman was a member of the Carolina Panthers last season.
Adding to the intrigue here, Norman is following OBJ around throughout the entire game. That’s something the high-priced Skins free agent didn’t do in his first two games as a member of the team.
It’s an intriguing matchup within the context of an extremely important early-season game between these two division rivals.
More so than whoever comes out on top in this elite-level one-on-one duel, the player that keeps his cool will likely help his team win.
