The Miami Dolphins are eager to bring even more firepower to their already potent offense. According to Dolphins’ head coach Mike McDaniels, the Dolphins have recently made an offer to veteran wideout Odell Beckham Jr.

Beckham reportedly visited the Dolphins last week but the two sides were unable to come to an agreement right away. He also attracted interest from several other teams including the Carolina Panthers and the New York Jets.

“We did make him an offer and business takes time, especially with players such as Odell, who’s had a phenomenal career, still has really good football in front of him and has options,” McDaniel said via Miami Herald. “So, I think those conversations will be ongoing. We’ll see where they go.”

The Dolphins have Pro Bowler Tyreek Hill and 2021’s first-round pick Jaylen Waddle as their top two receivers. They lost their No.3 wideout Cedrick Wilson Jr. in free agency, and it is believed that the organization is pursuing Beckham with this role in mind.

Once considered one of the best wide receivers in the game, Odell Beckham Jr’s production dipped in recent years due to injuries. Since 2019, the last season in which he reached the 1,000 receiving yards mark, Beckham played only 35 games and was forced to miss the entire 2022 campaign due to an ACL injury.

Beckham spent 2023 with the Baltimore Ravens, making 35 catches for 565 yards and three touchdowns.

Veteran wideout Odell Beckham Jr. has agreed to a deal with the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens confirmed the move on Sunday, announcing that they agreed in principle on a one-year contract with Beckham.

According to multiple reports, Beckham will get a guaranteed $15 million annual salary from the Ravens as part of the agreement. In addition, the Pro Bowler will be able to earn an extra $3 million via bonuses and incentives.

Beckham was considered the top free agent left on the market this offseason. Several teams were reportedly interested in signing him but were turned off by his salary demands. The 30-year-old player reportedly asked between $20 million and $15 million annually on a multi-year deal, something teams were unwilling to give him considering his injury history.

The reason why the Ravens met Beckham’s asking price, albeit on a one-year commitment, was the fact that they had the lowest-producing wideout group in the league in three of the four past seasons. With Beckham in the building, Baltimore now has a proven No. 1 option on the position and a player that can elevate the entire team.  

Odell Beckham missed the entire 2022 recovering from an ACL injury he suffered in Super Bowl LVI. He has 531 career catches for 7,367 and 56 touchdowns. Beckham’s NFL resume includes three Pro Bowl nods and two Second-Team All-Pro selections.

The Dallas Cowboys’ interest in star wideout Odell Beckham Jr. appears to be cooling off. According to multiple reports, the Cowboys have concerns about Beckham’s availability in the 2022 season after hosting him earlier this week.

Beckham, who is currently a free agent, flirted with a number of teams while recovering from an ACL injury he suffered in the Super Bowl LVI. He seemed particularly fond of the Cowboys, and the franchise welcomed the possibility, believing the three-time Pro Bowler might improve their championship odds.

However, the Cowboys’ interest in Beckham was motivated by getting him on the field this season, which they realized might not be an option after hosting the player. The 30-year-old player didn’t work out at all during his visit and seemed to still have a long way to go before returning to the field. This was the main reason why the franchise did not offer him a deal.

The Cowboys’ owner Jerry Jones confirmed the team’s concerns during a recent chat with 105.3 The Fan.

 “Well, I’m not confident at all,” said Jones when asked why he’s confident about signing Beckham. “And so that’s the issue. We all realize that issue of health, that issue of availability.”

Odell Beckham Jr. started the last season with the Cleveland Browns but ended up being released after six weeks. He then signed with the Los Angeles Rams and emerged as one of the key contributors in the team’s Super Bowl run. Beckham had 21 catches for 288 yards and two touchdowns in the postseason, including one TD in the championship game.

Pro Bowl wideout Odell Beckham Jr. is heading to Los Angeles after being released by the Cleveland Browns earlier this week. Beckham opted to join the Rams, inking a one-year deal with the franchise.

Reportedly, Beckham was approached by a number of teams in recent days, with the New Orleans Saints, the Kansas City Chiefs, and the Green Bay Packers emerging as the favorites for his signature. Still, the always-aggressive Rams swooped in at the last moment and managed to add another weapon to their offense.

The Rams officially confirmed the deal on their social media on Thursday.

Beckham arriving in LA has already got his teammates excited, with the quarterback Matthew Stafford being particularly pleased to have the three-time Pro Bowler playing by his side.

“It’s an opportunity for us as a team, it’s an opportunity for him to come in here and prove himself to us. What our room is about in the receiver room is pretty special. I know he’ll fit right in and continue to get better and hopefully help us as a team,” Stafford said.

Odell Beckham Jr. spent the last two and a half years with the Browns but struggled to mesh with the team’s quarterback Baker Mayfield. That was particularly on display this season which saw Beckham managing only 17 catches for 232 yards in six games.

Beckham became disgruntled in Cleveland and reportedly wanted to be moved ahead of the NFL trade deadline. His father tried to speed things up by posting a video on social media that saw Mayfield continuously failing to get the ball to Beckham. While this didn’t get Beckham traded, it signaled that he and the Browns had no future together and prompted the organization to release the LSU product.

It’s safe to say that Odell Beckham Jr. didn’t live up to his reputation as one of the game’s best wideouts since joining the Cleveland Browns in 2019. His father, Odell Beckham Sr., believes this is because the Browns’ quarterback Baker Mayfield ignores Beckham Jr. during games.

Beckham Sr. recently made his opinion public by sharing a video on Instagram that shows all the times that his son was wide open, but Mayfield decided not to pass him the ball. The video also showcases plays that saw Mayfield targeting and missing Beckham Jr. due to overthrows or bad ball placement.

Beckham Sr. also didn’t hesitate to be active in the comments section by giving a stamp of approval when one fan wrote that Mayfield is “either hating on Odell or he just doesn’t want him shining.”

Later that day, Ohio native and NBA superstar LeBron James also added to the controversy when he showed his support to Odell Beckham Jr. on Twitter by writing that “OBJ will show again why he’s special.” He also added #FreeOBJ as part of the post, seemingly calling the Browns to trade Beckham.

Reportedly, Cleveland doesn’t intend to move Beckham Jr. before the NFL’s trade deadline despite the 28-year-old’s limited impact. They did receive some offers for the wideout lately, but neither made sense for the organization, according to ESPN’s Dianna Russini.

Beckham played six games in 2021 and has 17 catches for 232 yards on 34 targets. He is yet to score a touchdown this season.

According to reports close to the team, the Cleveland Browns’ star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. tore his ACL on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals and will be out for the remainder of the season.

Beckham hurt himself while trying to make a tackle after Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield threw an interception. The Browns, however, did end up winning the game 37-30.

Cleveland did not have any news about the injury when it happened on Sunday but feared that it was serious. An MRI on Monday confirmed their worst fears, it’s a torn ACL that will require season-ending surgery.

It’s a terrible end to the season for Beckham, who just started to look like he was getting comfortable in the Cleveland offense.

Beckham rose to fame after being drafted by the New York Giants in 2014, where he put up record-breaking numbers in his first three seasons.

However, he fell out of favor with New York’s management, who decided to move on from Beckham, who was getting a reputation for creating drama both on and off the field.

He was traded to the Browns in 2019. Coming into the game against the Bengals on Sunday, Beckham had only 319 yards receiving in six games and four touchdowns.

In a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal, Cleveland Browns star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. said that he believes the 2020 NFL season should have been canceled completely, because of concerns related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Commenting on the NBA season that has restarted, Beckham Jr. said “Hooping is different than playing an eleven-on-eleven contact sport where there are 80 people in a locker room. We’re not ready for football season. So why are we trying to push forward?”

The Browns star continued his observation, stating that the NFL season is obviously going to go on because of the team owners who want to make money, adding that “they don’t see us (NFL players) as human.”

However, hours after this report was released, Cleveland.com released a story saying that Beckham Jr. has no plans of opting out of the 2020 season, adding that since he has seen all of the precautions that the Browns have taken at the facility, he believes that players will be safe.

Beckham, and anyone else that doesn’t feel safe playing in 2020, will have until Thursday, August 6, to make a decision on whether or not they want to opt-out of the 2020 season.

It feels like Odell Beckham Jr. was involved in some kind of trade rumors ever since he joined Cleveland Browns last offseason. And while we can read a new report about Beckham’s potential exit almost every week, Browns, to their credit, remain fairly consistent in denying them.

New Browns’ general manager Andrew Berry addressed the Beckham trade rumors most recently during his Wednesday appearance on Good Morning Football, saying that the team sees the veteran wideout as a “long-term member of the organization.”

“With all due respect to the question, I think this is actually a topic, at least from our perspective, there really hasn’t been a ton of ambiguity,” said Berry on Wednesday. “We’ve been clear from the beginning that we view Odell as a fantastic player. We’re a better team with him on the field. We see him as a long-term member of the organization.”

Browns sent a first-round pick (No.17) last year to New York Giants for Odell Beckham, hoping he will make a dynamic WR duo with Pro Bowler and former UCLA teammate Jarvis Landry. Beckham ended up having a solid season but was far from spectacular, catching 74 passes for 1,035 yards and four touchdowns.

Shortly after the season ended, reports surfaced that Beckham was reportedly unhappy with his role in the offense and wanted out. The 27-year-old was linked with several NFL teams since then, and there were talks that Cleveland even discussed trade packages with Minnesota Vikings.

Despite all of this, however, Beckham remained a Brown.  And, if we are to trust Berry, this will also be the case for a foreseeable future.

Cleveland Browns are having a disappointing 2019 considering how high their expectations were before the start of the season. Browns are currently 6-7 and would need a miracle to get to the playoffs. To make things even worse, rumors say that their star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr wants out.

Beckham was cagey about his future in Cleveland when asked about it in early December, and several reports since then claimed that the 27-year-old wideout is actively attempting to leave the Browns. However, his teammate and friend Jarvis Landry say this is not true.

Landry, who was also Beckham’s teammate at LSU during their college days, said on Thursday that OBJ “is not trying to leave” the Browns.

“It’s not even about trying to go somewhere else, for him,” – said Landry. “He’s been a leader. He’s a guy that comes to work every day. He’s a guy that’s played through injuries. All of the things you want out of a player.”

“Inside this organization he has a voice, he has a responsibility to himself to all of us to go out there and compete each and every Sunday. And he does that. So he doesn’t want to leave and he’s not trying to leave.” – he added.

Odell Beckham joined Cleveland Browns from New York Giants in a blockbuster trade in March. He was expected to be a big centerpiece in Browns’ playoff run, but things didn’t work out that way. Cleveland is playing on a disappointing level considering their talent, and Beckham has one of the worst years in his career.

In 13 games in 2019, Beckham has 59 receptions for 844 yards and only two touchdowns. He also failed to get to 100 receiving yards in the last seven games, the longest stretch in his career.

It seems Odell Beckham Jr.’s hip injury is worse than it was assumed at first. Speaking with reporters on Thursday, Cleveland Browns’ wideout admitted that he isn’t at 100 percent and that the injury still bothers him.

Beckham was limited throughout the training camp and didn’t participate in any Browns’ preseason games due to these struggles. It is unclear when and how the injury happened, but the 26-year-old Pro Bowler said that he knew something was off in early August.

“This is something I’ve never had to deal with,” – said Beckham about the injury. “It’s like an extremely fast car with like a little alignment or something off. And it’s right in the center of what you need.”

Still, the injury won’t stop Beckham from playing in Cleveland’s season opener on Sunday against Tennessee Titans. This will also be the first time he wears Browns’ jersey in an NFL game.

“It’s getting better,” – he added. “It’s as good as it’s going to be until the season starts. It’s something that hopefully that keeps progressing and gets better and not worse.”

Cleveland Browns traded for Odell Beckham in March, sending Jabrill Peppers and their 2019 first round pick (17th overall) to New York Giants in exchange. They were hoping that Beckham could be the final piece of the puzzle that will bring them back to playoffs for the first time since 2002. If his injury struggles continue, however, they might have a hard time doing that in the crowded AFC North.

Beckham became disgruntled in Cleveland and reportedly wanted to be moved ahead of the NFL trade deadline. His father tried to speed things up by posting a video on social media that saw Mayfield continuously failing to get the ball to Beckham. While this didn’t get Beckham traded, it signaled that he and the Browns had no future together and prompted the organization to release the LSU product.

It’s safe to say that Odell Beckham Jr. didn’t live up to his reputation as one of the game’s best wideouts since joining the Cleveland Browns in 2019. His father, Odell Beckham Sr., believes this is because the Browns’ quarterback Baker Mayfield ignores Beckham Jr. during games.

Beckham Sr. recently made his opinion public by sharing a video on Instagram that shows all the times that his son was wide open, but Mayfield decided not to pass him the ball. The video also showcases plays that saw Mayfield targeting and missing Beckham Jr. due to overthrows or bad ball placement.

Beckham Sr. also didn’t hesitate to be active in the comments section by giving a stamp of approval when one fan wrote that Mayfield is “either hating on Odell or he just doesn’t want him shining.”

Later that day, Ohio native and NBA superstar LeBron James also added to the controversy when he showed his support to Odell Beckham Jr. on Twitter by writing that “OBJ will show again why he’s special.” He also added #FreeOBJ as part of the post, seemingly calling the Browns to trade Beckham.

Reportedly, Cleveland doesn’t intend to move Beckham Jr. before the NFL’s trade deadline despite the 28-year-old’s limited impact. They did receive some offers for the wideout lately, but neither made sense for the organization, according to ESPN’s Dianna Russini.

Beckham played six games in 2021 and has 17 catches for 232 yards on 34 targets. He is yet to score a touchdown this season.

According to reports close to the team, the Cleveland Browns’ star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. tore his ACL on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals and will be out for the remainder of the season.

Beckham hurt himself while trying to make a tackle after Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield threw an interception. The Browns, however, did end up winning the game 37-30.

Cleveland did not have any news about the injury when it happened on Sunday but feared that it was serious. An MRI on Monday confirmed their worst fears, it’s a torn ACL that will require season-ending surgery.

It’s a terrible end to the season for Beckham, who just started to look like he was getting comfortable in the Cleveland offense.

Beckham rose to fame after being drafted by the New York Giants in 2014, where he put up record-breaking numbers in his first three seasons.

However, he fell out of favor with New York’s management, who decided to move on from Beckham, who was getting a reputation for creating drama both on and off the field.

He was traded to the Browns in 2019. Coming into the game against the Bengals on Sunday, Beckham had only 319 yards receiving in six games and four touchdowns.

In a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal, Cleveland Browns star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. said that he believes the 2020 NFL season should have been canceled completely, because of concerns related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Commenting on the NBA season that has restarted, Beckham Jr. said “Hooping is different than playing an eleven-on-eleven contact sport where there are 80 people in a locker room. We’re not ready for football season. So why are we trying to push forward?”

The Browns star continued his observation, stating that the NFL season is obviously going to go on because of the team owners who want to make money, adding that “they don’t see us (NFL players) as human.”

However, hours after this report was released, Cleveland.com released a story saying that Beckham Jr. has no plans of opting out of the 2020 season, adding that since he has seen all of the precautions that the Browns have taken at the facility, he believes that players will be safe.

Beckham, and anyone else that doesn’t feel safe playing in 2020, will have until Thursday, August 6, to make a decision on whether or not they want to opt-out of the 2020 season.

It feels like Odell Beckham Jr. was involved in some kind of trade rumors ever since he joined Cleveland Browns last offseason. And while we can read a new report about Beckham’s potential exit almost every week, Browns, to their credit, remain fairly consistent in denying them.

New Browns’ general manager Andrew Berry addressed the Beckham trade rumors most recently during his Wednesday appearance on Good Morning Football, saying that the team sees the veteran wideout as a “long-term member of the organization.”

“With all due respect to the question, I think this is actually a topic, at least from our perspective, there really hasn’t been a ton of ambiguity,” said Berry on Wednesday. “We’ve been clear from the beginning that we view Odell as a fantastic player. We’re a better team with him on the field. We see him as a long-term member of the organization.”

Browns sent a first-round pick (No.17) last year to New York Giants for Odell Beckham, hoping he will make a dynamic WR duo with Pro Bowler and former UCLA teammate Jarvis Landry. Beckham ended up having a solid season but was far from spectacular, catching 74 passes for 1,035 yards and four touchdowns.

Shortly after the season ended, reports surfaced that Beckham was reportedly unhappy with his role in the offense and wanted out. The 27-year-old was linked with several NFL teams since then, and there were talks that Cleveland even discussed trade packages with Minnesota Vikings.

Despite all of this, however, Beckham remained a Brown.  And, if we are to trust Berry, this will also be the case for a foreseeable future.

Cleveland Browns are having a disappointing 2019 considering how high their expectations were before the start of the season. Browns are currently 6-7 and would need a miracle to get to the playoffs. To make things even worse, rumors say that their star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr wants out.

Beckham was cagey about his future in Cleveland when asked about it in early December, and several reports since then claimed that the 27-year-old wideout is actively attempting to leave the Browns. However, his teammate and friend Jarvis Landry say this is not true.

Landry, who was also Beckham’s teammate at LSU during their college days, said on Thursday that OBJ “is not trying to leave” the Browns.

“It’s not even about trying to go somewhere else, for him,” – said Landry. “He’s been a leader. He’s a guy that comes to work every day. He’s a guy that’s played through injuries. All of the things you want out of a player.”

“Inside this organization he has a voice, he has a responsibility to himself to all of us to go out there and compete each and every Sunday. And he does that. So he doesn’t want to leave and he’s not trying to leave.” – he added.

Odell Beckham joined Cleveland Browns from New York Giants in a blockbuster trade in March. He was expected to be a big centerpiece in Browns’ playoff run, but things didn’t work out that way. Cleveland is playing on a disappointing level considering their talent, and Beckham has one of the worst years in his career.

In 13 games in 2019, Beckham has 59 receptions for 844 yards and only two touchdowns. He also failed to get to 100 receiving yards in the last seven games, the longest stretch in his career.

It seems Odell Beckham Jr.’s hip injury is worse than it was assumed at first. Speaking with reporters on Thursday, Cleveland Browns’ wideout admitted that he isn’t at 100 percent and that the injury still bothers him.

Beckham was limited throughout the training camp and didn’t participate in any Browns’ preseason games due to these struggles. It is unclear when and how the injury happened, but the 26-year-old Pro Bowler said that he knew something was off in early August.

“This is something I’ve never had to deal with,” – said Beckham about the injury. “It’s like an extremely fast car with like a little alignment or something off. And it’s right in the center of what you need.”

Still, the injury won’t stop Beckham from playing in Cleveland’s season opener on Sunday against Tennessee Titans. This will also be the first time he wears Browns’ jersey in an NFL game.

“It’s getting better,” – he added. “It’s as good as it’s going to be until the season starts. It’s something that hopefully that keeps progressing and gets better and not worse.”

Cleveland Browns traded for Odell Beckham in March, sending Jabrill Peppers and their 2019 first round pick (17th overall) to New York Giants in exchange. They were hoping that Beckham could be the final piece of the puzzle that will bring them back to playoffs for the first time since 2002. If his injury struggles continue, however, they might have a hard time doing that in the crowded AFC North.
