Ever since the Los Angeles Rams Super Bowl victory last February against the Cincinnati Bengals, Odell Beckham Jr. has been on the sidelines with a torn ACL. Now a free agent, Odell Beckham Jr. is looking for a team to help him in his resurgence story back into the NFL. The trade period is almost here, with March 15 being the start of the trading window for teams. OBJ recently hosted a workout session for NFL teams in Arizona on Friday.

While looking muscular and fit, OBJ drew the attention of the NFL world, as he was called a combination of Deebo Samuel and Saquon Barkley.
