New York Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. has produced some tremendous performances in his first two NFL seasons.

The first half against the Carolina Panthers isn’t one of those.

Beckham Jr. threw a punch to the helmet of cornerback Cortland Finnegan, a long-time NFL irritant who has made a career out of taking emotional receivers out of the game.

He also dropped a few passes and got involved in other skirmishes. Defensive end Jared Allen was pleased to see Beckham penalized.

Before the game, Beckham Jr. wore special Nike cleats adorned with Christmas presents and lights. OBJ, we’re all for the fancy shoes. But if you’re going to wear those, you’ve got to back it up with strong play on the field.
