NFL Trade Rumors: Three Possible Landing Spots For Unsettled Browns WR Odell Beckham Jr
Odell Beckham Jr. enjoyed a strong reputation as a New York Giants player. The former Lousiana State University man emerged as one of the top-rated wide receivers in the NFL towards the end of the last decade. He was signed by the Cleveland Browns in 2019 and arrived in the AFC with huge expectations.

However, his time with the Browns has been marred with injury. The LSU graduate has failed to establish himself as a fixed feature in head coach Kevin Stefanski’s offence. The former Minnesota Vikings coach has backed a rushing offence centred around Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt.
With the 2021 NFL trade deadline soon approaching, the Browns might be tempted with a potential deal to offload their misfiring superstar.

AFC West franchise, Las Vegas Raiders, are in the headlines for all the wrong reasons this week. Following coach Jon Gruden’s unforeseen exit, the team is under major uncertainty as we approach Week 6.
But senior management is reportedly thinking about the future and Odell Beckham Jr. is on their holiday season wishlist. The Raiders could snap at the opportunity of a potential trade deal for Beckham as they hope to continue in the same vein and seal a playoff spot.
But other potential suitors allegedly include the Green Bay Packers, New Orleans Saints and the Philadelphia Eagles.
