Free Agent Odell Beckham Jr’s $20 Million Demand Receives Immediate Interest From Multiple Franchises After Training Video Goes Viral

Odell Beckham Jr. is all set to make his official return to his playing days. Most teams in the league would give away their right arm to have prime Odell Beckham Jr. within their ranks, but over the years his health has come across as a major concern.

OBJ last laced up his boots for the Las Angeles Rams back in 2021, before an awkward landing took away the next few years from the Pro Bowler.

Beckham is coming off a second ACL tear, but still, teams have their eyes fixated on the star wide receiver. Many even tout Beckham as one of the most sought-after wide receivers in the entire league. But acquiring OBJ has its fair share of struggles.

Teams would have to indulge in an outright bidding war, with Beckham making demands close to $20 million in remuneration. Beckham however did hold a private workout session to ease up the doubts that have crept into many teams surrounding him.

Multiple teams line up for Odell Beckham Jr.

Beckham had to sit out the entire 2022 season. At some point in the year reports of OBJ demanding a contract close to $20 million per year caught the attention of many. As the situation currently stands, Beckham still aligns him with the exact same number.

Beckham wasn’t going to just make a demand, the man is ready to prove his readiness to be thrown into the fire once again. His private workout in Arizona saw representatives from the Panthers, Giants, Patriots, Rams, Cardinals, 49ers, Bills, Chiefs, Vikings, Browns, and Ravens.

Beckham seemed as explosive as ever during the workouts, giving teams a glimpse of his former self. Another video of OBJ making an exceptionally difficult one handed-catch went viral.

It is not like OBJ is unfamiliar with inhuman catches, let us face it we all remember “the catch”. The inhuman moment when Odell Beckham Jr. leaped to grab a ‘one-handed catch’ while hanging in the air, has etched itself in the minds of every NFL fanatic out there. Beckham showed similar glimpses, and teams would be licking their chops to get the man under their umbrella.

Adding to the legacy

Ever since being drafted by the New York Giants, OBJ has been continually putting up numbers. Just during his rookie year, he went on to make the single greatest catch in NFL history while setting a franchise record for the most receiving yards and most receptions in a season by a  rookie.

He also set the record for the fastest ever to reach 4,000 career receiving yards, becoming the only player in NFL history to have at least 1,300 receiving yards while playing in 12 or fewer games in a season.

The man went on to make 531 catches for 7,367 yards and scored 57 touchdowns, earning three Pro Bowl selections in the process.

NO wonder OBJ went on to earn himself the title of the Super Bowl champion (LVI) and NFL’s Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2014.

Although he has enough to back him up for a Hall of Fame career, Odell Beckham Jr. intends to keep on building, and time is definitely on his side. Having played just eight years in the NFL, OBJ still has a lot to showcase, and hopefully, he will.
