Former New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. will turn 29 in November. His first two seasons with the Cleveland Browns have been plagued with injuries. The highly rated wideout only played 7 games for Kevin Stefanski’s side in 2020.
He had 319 receiving yards and 3 receiving touchdowns on 23 receptions this season. However, his season was cut short in Week 7 while playing against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Odell Beckham Jr. left the game with a knee injury. It was later revealed that OBJ would miss the rest of the season with an ACL tear.
