New York Giants general manager Dave Gettleman spent a few minutes in the booth talking with Giants broadcasters Bob Papa and Carl Banks during Thursday night’s preseason game against the New England Patriots.
Gettleman talked about the 53-man roster, the Odell Beckham Jr. contract and his continued treatment for lymphoma.
Dave Gettleman on #Giants' plan this weekend, to @BobPapa_NFL & @CarlBanksGIII: "We're gonna keep the 53 best and then we're gonna work the waiver wire."

Gettleman on signing Odell before Week 1 to @BobPapa_NFL & @CarlBanksGIII: "Very frankly one of my goals was to eliminate distractions ... That was important to me ... I spoke to Odell before we started, had a great conversation. We were true to our word & he was true to his."
