New York Giants rookie wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. likely will not be available for the team's season opening game against the Detroit Lions, and Giants coach Tom Coughlin said it could be up to three weeks before Beckham sees the field. 

Beckham, the team's first-round draft choice, has been dealing with a hamstring injury for most of the team's training camp.

Beckham did not practice again on Monday, instead stretching with the Giants training staff.

The team enters the opener with Victor Cruz, Rueben Randle and Jerrel Jernigan as primary receiving options for quarterback Eli Manning.
