Star wide receiver Tyreek Hill of the Miami Dolphins recently hinted at which team free agent Odell Beckham Jr. may sign with. Hill shared a photo on Snapchat showing him embracing Beckham during a game between the Ravens and Dolphins last season. In the caption, Hill suggested that Beckham will be joining the Miami team, stating, “OBJ to Miami confirmed.”
Two weeks ago, the Miami Dolphins had a meeting with Odell Beckham Jr. According to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald, the Dolphins were happy with the meeting and were looking to sign the former Pro Bowler.
It was also reported that an AFC Super Bowl contender had made a contract offer to Beckham Jr. The 31-year-old wide receiver spent the 2023 season with the Baltimore Ravens after missing the entire 2022 season.
During his time with the Ravens, Beckham caught 35 passes for 565 yards and scored three touchdowns in 14 games. Quarterback Lamar Jackson went on to win his second NFL MVP award that season.
Wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. has had a successful career in the NFL, with 566 receptions, 7,932 receiving yards, and 59 touchdowns. He was named the Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2014 and has been selected to the Pro Bowl three times.
He has achieved over 1,000 receiving yards in five of his nine NFL seasons. The article discusses the possibility of Beckham joining the Miami Dolphins as a third receiver.
The Dolphins already have strong receivers in Hill and Waddle, but adding Beckham could provide more support for quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. Despite not being in his prime, Beckham has proven he can contribute as a third pass-catching option, as seen during his time in Baltimore.
The Dolphins, who have had success in recent seasons but lack playoff victories, could benefit from Beckham’s experience and skill set. Additionally, Beckham may come at a reasonable cost in free agency due to his current career phase.
