NFL Trade Rumors: Three Possible Landing Spots For Unsettled Browns WR Odell Beckham Jr

Published 10/16/2021, 2:24 AM EDT

Odell Beckham Jr. enjoyed a strong reputation as a New York Giants player. The former Lousiana State University man emerged as one of the top-rated wide receivers in the NFL towards the end of the last decade. He was signed by the Cleveland Browns in 2019 and arrived in the AFC with huge expectations.

However, his time with the Browns has been marred with injury. The LSU graduate has failed to establish himself as a fixed feature in head coach Kevin Stefanski’s offence. The former Minnesota Vikings coach has backed a rushing offence centred around Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt.

But other potential suitors allegedly include the Green Bay Packers, New Orleans Saints and the Philadelphia Eagles.

There is still no confirmation from Stefanski and Co. that they are open to the idea of letting OBJ depart before deadline day. The 28-year old recently returned from injury. He’s only featured in three games for the Browns this season with 124 receiving yards. However, he still hasn’t caught a single receiving touchdown from quarterback Baker Mayfield.
