Through his first four years in the NFL, New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. has quickly become one of the best players in the NFL behind his elite level production.

However, he has also become of the most popular players in the league that has been further extenuated by his flamboyant personality both on and off the field. According to Onlinegambling.ca, this has helped Beckham Jr. accumulate the clear-cut largest following on Instagram that is more than twice as big than any other player in the NFL.

Beyond his stellar play on the field, Beckham has become highly active on social media that has only increased his popularity among fans from his numerous posts of photos and videos of his life away from the game along with showing off his tremendous work ethic toward his craft. This has all made him an intriguing follow while his talent as a premier wide receiver has made him one of the faces of the NFL.

Another interesting note that Onlinegambling.ca has noted is that the top five Giants players in followers on Instagram also have the most of any team with the New England Patriots ranking second. Much of this is due to Beckham Jr.'s tremendous outreach on the social media platform. This high level of popularity for Beckham Jr. has opened up numerous marketing opportunities for him with several endorsement deals that he gathered away from the game.

The 25-year-old is currently working his way back from a surgically-repaired left ankle that he has continued to make significant progress in his recovery in the last several weeks. There is now a growing expectation that Pro Bowler will be back on the field for the season opener when the Giants take on the defending AFC South champion Jacksonville Jaguars at MetLife Stadium on Sept. 9.
