WR From the Browns Signs With AFC East Rival
The general manager of the Cleveland Browns, Andrew Berry, has spent his first four seasons on the organization looking for a serviceable player at a fair price.
However, the most recent tidings on a free-agent acquisition on Friday morning lacked both of those elements, nor would the player be given any thought following his abrupt exit from the Browns during his initial stint there.
On Twitter, NFL insider Ian Rapoport said that Odell Beckham Jr., a former wide receiver for Cleveland, inked a new contract with the Miami Dolphins.
Beckham signed a contract of $3 million for a single year, but incentives may raise the salary to $8.25 million this season.
The wide receiver was previously selected by the New York Giants in the first round.
Beckham made 390 receptions for 5,476 yards and 44 touchdowns in 59 games while he was a Giant.
In a sensational transaction that took place in March 2019, Cleveland obtained Beckham and defensive end Olivier Vernon in return for offensive lineman Kevin Zeitler, safety Jabrill Peppers, and first- and third-round draft picks.
After missing the majority of the second season due to an ACL injury, Beckham played in just 29 games throughout his shorter than three-year stay in Cleveland.
He caught 74 catches for 1,035 yards and four touchdowns in his greatest season as a member of the Browns organization.
With 13 games left to play, Beckham caught 40 passes for 551 yards and three scores in Cleveland.
When Beckham asked Cleveland for a trade halfway through the 2021 season, the Browns refused to deal the wide receiver.
Rather, Beckham was waived when the two sides voluntarily decided to part ways following the trade deadline.
Beckham participated in 14 games for the Baltimore Ravens in 2023.
