Redskins players and coaches hinted all week that Josh Norman would cover Odell Beckham on Sunday and now it's looks like the news is official.

#Redskins CB Josh Norman will cover Odell Beckham today. Skins source broke down their feelings on it: Their No. 3 WR called him out …(1/2) — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) September 25, 2016

Norman/Beckham (2/2) from Skins source: The coach’s granted Victor Cruz’s wish. We hope they are ready for what they asked for. — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) September 25, 2016

No surprise here as Jay Gruden suggested Norman would cover Beckham on "every snap" last Monday speaking with CSN's Rob Carlin.

Obviously the Norman/Beckham matchup comes with much anticipation as their pairing came with fireworks in the 2015 season. The two players exchanged words, shoves and Beckham even attempted a flying forearm shiver at one point.

What this move means for the rest of the redskins defense will be interesting. Though Beckham is the headline, the Giants also present top line receivers in Victor Cruz and rookie Sterling Shepard.
