New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. Beckham, a first-round pick, has yet to make his NFL debut due to a hamstring injury that has plagued him since training camp. The rookie from LSU has been talking about returning for weeks now, but he's consistently been a limited participant in practice.
Odell Beckham injury update: Giants WR questionable, no fantasy value just yet

With a hamstring injury, the Giants can never be too careful. Beckham’s addition to the offense will be welcome, but if sitting out another week is what’s needed to get healthy, then it would be an easy decision to make. That said, both the team and Beckham have been talking about the young receiver making his debut this week.
Fantasy Impact: Beckham isn’t much of a fantasy option just yet, but he was drafted for his big-play potential. Beckham said that he’d be happy playing a limited number of snaps in his debut, and that seems likely at this point. He’s worth keeping on your fantasy teams for the possibility of him breaking out over the next few weeks, but he’s not a smart option until he shows that he’s healthy and that he’ll get playing time.
