Where will Odell Beckham Jr. land?
After tearing his ACL as a member of the Los Angeles Rams in last year’s Super Bowl, the general belief wad that LA would bring back OBJ given his contributions to their championship run. But through the first six weeks of the NFL season, Beckham Jr. remains a free agent, and he’ll likely be fully recovered from his injury in the near future.
Although the Rams still haven’t re-signed Beckham Jr., they remain a favorite to sign him. The Rams are currently a slight favorite to land OBJ at +200, with the Bills slightly behind at +225. The next closest team is the Buccaneers at +550, per DraftKings.
Beckham recently created headlines when tweeting out his displeasure with how the Rams treated him following the ACL injury.
“LA knows where I wanted to be,” Beckham tweeted. “… but they didn’t offer me…. ANYthing! So idk what people want me to do, I def kno my worth and what the offer was isn’t reflective of that. So it’s tough to say that I can come on back even tho I thought I finally found that home !”
Beckham Jr. signed with he Rams after being released by the Cleveland Browns last November. He proved to be a vital weapon in the playoffs later that year, netting 21 catches for 288 yards and two touchdowns before tearing his left ACL during Super Bowl LVI.
“I love Odell,” Rams head coach Sean McVay said to ESPN. “We have constant dialogue. He also knows that certainly I don’t think that’s the last [offer] that would come from us. I’m not familiar with what it is. He knows how we feel about him. We’ve got a little bit of time.
“But [I] love Odell. Nothing but good things coming from me.”
The Rams still have not cleaned out Beckham Jr’s locker since last season, and given their current struggles on offense, it still wouldn’t surprise anyone if they made a run at OBJ before season’s end.
