Odell Beckham and the New York Giants have made progress on what is expected to be a record-breaking contract for a wide receiver, according to sources.

There is optimism from both sides that an agreement could be reached by the start of the season.

The Giants will open the year on Sept. 9 against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Metlife Stadium.

Beckham has been seeking a deal after 10 of the other 12 receivers selected in the first two rounds of the 2014 draft have received new deals within the past year.
