After the expiration of his contract, Odell Beckham Jr. is in his free agency and looking for a new one. Many teams have expressed their desire to sign the WR. However, one team wants him more than anyone else. From the Cowboys to the Rams, OBJ received affirmative news that his services are being sought by the best.
In addition, the Rams’ HC Sean McVay also revealed that he wants to re-sign the star WR. Odell performed exceptionally well last season, becoming a lead architect in the Super Bowl victory of the Rams. Even the Rams’ COO, Kevin Demoff, is optimistic about OBJ’s return to his old team.

Further, the LA Rams expect the Super Bowl-winning WR to be back with the team before the season. He wishes to wear the 13-number jersey, which is currently not available. However, given that he is able to sign a deal before the games start, the Rams won’t hesitate in giving him the number.
