New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is active against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. Beckham is dealing with a hamstring injury and missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday leading up to the game. He was listed as questionable on the official injury report, but Giants head coach Tom Coughlin said on Friday that he expected Beckham to play.
Odell Beckham Jr. will play vs. Cowboys
Beckham was listed as questionable with a nagging hamstring injury but is set to play in Week 7.

Beckham has been New York's offense, more or less, thus far this season. The second-year receiver has caught 38 of the 60 passes thrown his way for 489 yards and four touchdowns. Any ball thrown anywhere close to him has the potential to be caught and taken in for a touchdown. The next-leading receiver on the team is Rueben Randle, who has 261 yards and two touchdowns receiving.
Beckham's status for the team's Week 6 game against the Philadelphia Eagles was also in question leading up to it thanks to the same hamstring injury. He suited up for that game and caught seven passes for 61 yards and a touchdown. He's already had two games of 100-plus receiving yards this season.
New York and Philadelphia are both 3-3 on the season. The Cowboys and Washington are just behind them at 2-3. The NFC East is wide open at this point in the season and Eli Manning will be very glad to have Beckham in the lineup.
