Subsequently, he made a tremendous recovery during the offseason, but his return in the season starter was still more than just a doubt. Beckham wasn’t an active member in the roster until week 3 against the Bears. Against them, Beckham caught five passes for 77 yards.
Following his Week 3 performance, Beckham has managed to catch only four passes on 10 targets and covering 47 yards in his last two clashes against the Vikings and the Chargers.
