Much was made about that hole, and it quickly became the subject of countless jokes, and memes around social media. Here’s the original photo of the hole:

In the days following the punch, Giants GM Jerry Reese said that the team would hold Beckham responsible for it. However, at the NFL’s owners meetings today, Giants owner John Mara went a step further in discussing the arrangements for the repair:
