Odell Beckham Jr being prematurely released by the Cleveland Browns over internal issues is one of the biggest news of the season that came as a shock to many NFL fans. However, it was not much of a surprise to those aware of the toxicity faced by the wideout in the Browns locker room.
For such fans, they knew this day would come, judging the trajectory of the relationship of the wide receiver with some of his teammates. And as the Cleveland Browns were excusing the three-time Pro Bowl receiver from practicing with the team, we expected that the franchise was planning something behind the curtains.

Odell + Las Vegas = thumbs up. Odell needs the brightest lights and Derek Carr is playing at the highest level of his career. I think Carr could handle all the mystique of Odell. More @Undisputed, now on FS1 https://t.co/nXOkrdW9lc

Want to say this about Odell Beckham Jr: Odell is a good man with a big heart. He was always accommodating and went out of his way for those who showed him love. Thought it could work in Cleveland, but though it hasn’t, some of the attacks are way overboard. #Browns

If the #Seahawks don’t put in a waiver claim for OBJ then the motto of Always Compete is dead.
They can 100% do it and rework any aspect of his current deal they don’t like on arrival.
