Redskins vs. Giants: 5 players to watch in Week 8 of 2018

Josh Norman may be the top corner on the Redskins if Quinton Dunbar misses time. Odell Beckham Jr. is the Giants’ best receiver. That’s certainly a matchup that bears watching.

Throughout their respective careers, Norman and Beckham have gone head to head, and they have gotten heated in the past. Fans will remember a game between the Giants and Panthers when Beckham and Norman got into multiple scrums in the contest and that led to the creation of the rivalry.

With both in the NFC East now, the rivalry has actually been a bit more muted. The duo has let their on-field play establish which player has been better. But on Sunday, they will still go toe-to-toe in a battle for the designation of being the better player in the battle.

This is the intrigue surrounding Norman in this game. That, coupled with his improved play in the past couple weeks, will make him a very fun player to watch. And as always, if Beckham’s antics start to bother Norman, you can expect that the vocal corner will let Beckham know and create some conflict on the field.
