OBJ isn't waiting on the announcement to let his feelings known ... especially considering the growing list of devastating injuries at MetLife over the years.
"Dear @NFL, I mean this with the utmost love and respect. We (The NFL) take all The precautions in the world with EVERYthing else when it comes to players 'health' and 'safety.' PLZ. PLZ. PLZ. GET RID OF THE 🤬 TURF," Beckham said on X.
"Respect and u kno I loveeeee the giants, but DeathLife has taken too many talented players away from the game."
OBJ is no stranger to MetLife -- he suffered multiple ankle injuries on the turf when he suited up for the Giants from 2014 to 2018. Another former NYG star, Saquon Barkley, also battled ankle injuries during his time in the Big Apple.
MetLife also hosted Aaron Rodgers' torn Achilles in his Jets debut in 2023 ... as well as and 49ers players Nick Bosa and Solomon Thomas' ACL tears against the NYJ in 2020.
"I kno it’s not ALL the turfs fault but at least maybe it to where we’ve gotten all research done to if TURF has to stay it’s at the HIGHEST of quality possible," Beckham said. "At least can we start the discussion."
Nabers is scheduled to have an MRI on Monday.
So, coincidence or not?? OBJ doesn't seem to think it's the former ... and he's hoping the NFL does its due diligence on the matter.
