Eli Manning: Giants need Beckham to 'raise his level'

Odell Beckham Jr. is far and away the most entertaining part of the New York Giants' offence, but his quarterback expects more from the star receiver next season.

"Odell has obviously done great things, but we need him to raise his level as well," Eli Manning told the New York Daily News' Ebenezer Samuel on a conference call Monday.

Manning is aware that Beckham already provides a lot for the Giants' offence, but he believes there's still more to come.

"There are things he can work on and we ask a lot of him," said Manning. "He's required to know a lot of different routes and a lot of techniques and exactly how to do it. That's the way he's gonna get a lot of balls and be in position to do a lot of things."

With the departure of receiver Rueben Randle to the Philadelphia Eagles and the uncertain health of Victor Cruz, Beckham's role will certainly not diminish within the Giants' system.
