Quite frankly, he hasn't done anything of note that the Giants should be concerned about maintaining his rights. The best course of action is for the Giants to release him and encourage him to seek the counseling that he deserves.
What has he shown that the team should take care of him while he abandons the team? Let him go. If he gets his head straight and wants to make a comeback they could always re-sign him next year.
You keep OO either with DNR or NFI...
Because that's what the Giants do. They take care of their own.
Exactly. I think the circumstances point toward NFI, unless Odighizuwa has done something to piss off the team. From what we know, he appears to be suffering a non-football-related illness. That's what NFI is for. Also keep in mind that when the Giants drafted Odighizuwa, they knew his background, and that - no matter how cheerful and healthy he may have appeared - he would always be at elevated risk for all sorts of post-traumatic issues. The team chose to share that risk by drafting him. It would be very disappointing if the team didn't support him now. This isn't about sacks and wins - it's about the life of a young victim of severe domestic abuse, whose family has spent fifteen years under the shadow of the worst stigma imaginable.
then injuries slow you and when you do get a chance, you are ineffective. That has to be hard on a guy and then throw in whatever personal issues he might have, he is going through a tough time.
Because that's what the Giants do. They take care of their own.
Bingo. Gotta be something rough going on. Let's hope the kid's OK. Whether or not he can make the team is so inconsequential compared to a young kid's life.
I know he was a no-show, but have no idea what's going on.

Let's hope it works out for Owa.
