Well, the Ravens gave him a lifeline after OBJ came back from an ACL injury as he had a decent outing last season with 565 receiving yards and 3 touchdowns from 35 receptions. Alas, they decided against retaining him. At the age of 31, this might be OBJ’s last contract in the NFL as he tries his best to impress the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes with a year’s contract. But why did OBJ sign up with the Chiefs only for a year?

Odell Beckham Jr.’s contract worth revealed?

Both parties had different objectives with the deal. OBJ was looking for more money, as reported by Daily Mail. They reported, “Odell wants a huge contract that has tons of money behind it and years attached to it because this is likely his last contract in the #NFL.” Mahomes’ restructured fees with the Chiefs have created room for $22 million while OBJ had a deal for $18 million with the Ravens. So, he would be looking for a deal on the north of $18 million while the Chiefs won’t be able to pay anything above $22 million. Hence, they could only afford a year’s deal for the upcoming season.
