Salary:
Beckham became the league’s highest-paid wide receiver in 2018 when he signed a five-year, $95 million contract with the New York Giants.
The Giants shocked the football world seven months later when the team traded Beckham to the Cleveland Browns.
The former LSU stand-out won NFL Rookie of the Year honors in 2014 and earned three Pro Bowl selections in his five years with the New York Giants.
To Bears:
With just one month to go until the start of the NFL season, there are still some big names left on the free agent market, with one of the biggest ones probably being Odell Beckham Jr.
Although Beckham has been free to sign with anyone since March, the former Rams receiver has been taking his time looking for a new team and that’s because there’s really no need for him to rush into a new deal.
Injury update:
Odell Beckham Jr. is on the rehab trail after tearing his ACL in the Super Bowl four months ago, attempting to work his way back from yet another devastating injury.
It’s nothing new for the star receiver, who tore his ACL once before while with the Browns.
Colts:
Odell Beckham Jr. remains a free agent with training camp underway, and it does not appear he is anywhere close to signing with a team. The star receiver is, however, receiving interest.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Media said Sunday that Beckham has “continued to receive interest from several contending teams.”
