The New York Jets and New York Giants square off in their annual preseason game on Saturday, which means Darrelle Revis will cover Odell Beckham Jr. for the first time.

At practice on Wednesday, Revis had high praise for the Giants' first-round pick in 2014, calling his famous one-handed catch the best he's ever seen.

“It's probably by far the best catch I've probably ever seen,” Revis said, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini. “It's weird how he caught it. For him to have that kind of focus during that time, during that play, and be able to snag the ball, it's pretty cool.”

Revis, who returned to the Jets this off-season after two seasons away from New York, also called Beckham “one of the best receivers in the league.”

Last season, Beckham caught 91 passes for 1,305 yards and 12 touchdowns in 12 games. 

The Jets and Giants meet on Saturday at 7 p.m. ET.
