Odell Beckham got in a London mood for the Giants’ game against the Rams on Sunday. The cleats he wore in warmups and in the game both had an unmistakable London flair. 

First, Beckham came out before the game in shoes with Burberry’s classic plaid pattern.

But because NFL rules require game cleats to be in the team’ colors, Beckham switched those out for a paid tribute to British rock icons the Rolling Stones and The Who.

Unfortunately for the Giants, they couldn’t get no satisfaction in the early going, quickly falling behind 10–0.
