New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is a man of many talents. 

The former LSU star can evade defenders with his terrific speed, make unbelievably-difficult one-handed catches with the greatest of ease, and also terrorize defensive backs in general with ability.

It's time to add "acting" under the umbrella of talents Beckham Jr. brings to the table. 

Playing himself, Beckham Jr. will appear on the Feb. 10 episode of the CBS medical drama Code Black. His high school football coach (portrayed by actor Beau Bridges) is in the hospital preparing for an operation.

As many athletes have transitioned back-and-forth between the entertainment and sports worlds, Beckham Jr. is ready to also throw his proverbial hat into the ring.
