It seems as if Odell Beckham Jr. is taking shots at Eli Manning from Cleveland.

Speaking to reporters on Wednesday from Browns OTAs, Beckham said that he needed to adjust to Baker Mayfield's arm strength, seeming to take a dig at Manning. 

"I'm going to have to get adjusted to the speed because he has an arm,'' Beckham told reporters. "He's throwing that ball hard. Just catching him from the first day, it was like, 'Wow! This is completely different.' It just takes time."

 

Beckham Jr. racked up 5,476 receiving yards and 44 touchdowns over his five seasons as a member of Big Blue, with almost all of that coming with Manning as his quarterback. Thanks in part to Manning, Beckham Jr. earned Pro Bowl nods in each of his first three seasons with the Giants.
