New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham is one of the favorites to win NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, but he would send his vote to a former teammate.

Odell Beckham Jr. has the catch of the year and the New York Giants wide receiver is now among the front-runners to claim the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year award at the end of the season.

Beckham clearly knows the Rookie of the Year talk is there, but he does say that is not a main focus.

“It’s always in the back of your mind. But right now, honestly, just finish out the last couple of games and whatever happens, happens. You can only control what you can control. I’m just [thinking] whatever happens, happens,’’ Beckham told the New York Post. “Of course [it’d be nice]. If it were to happen, it’d be quite an accomplishment. But that’s not up to me; just keep doing what you’re doing.’’

So if Beckham was to give his vote for the award, he would vote for some of his former LSU Tigers teammates.

Beckham said he would vote for Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jarvis Landry for the award, with Cincinnati Bengals running back Jeremy Hill as his No. 2 choice.

Ultimately, we will have to wait to see who claims the award, but what we do get here is a fresh reminder of just how talented the LSU offense was.
