It feels like we could be getting a decision from Odell Beckham Jr. very soon on where he’ll be suiting up next. With the standout wide receiver expected to be fully cleared this week, you better believe that several organizations will be lining up to try and sign him. This is OBJ we’re talking about.
It looks like there are a handful of teams on Beckham’s mind, though. In a recent interview with Complex Sports, the speedster said he’s ready to get the ball rolling on his 2022 campaign, and that he wants to find a place to call home for the next few seasons. A reunion with the NY Giants was mentioned, which of course has fans in East Rutherford buzzing.
“Whether it’s Buffalo, Green Bay calling, the Cowboys, reunion with the Giants…”

Odell Beckham Jr. appears close to making his decison
It’s not going to be easy, but it sure is great to see that the G-Men are on Odell’s mind. Having said that, the Buffalo Bills, Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers would also love to see No. 13 suit up for them. All four teams need another playmaker for their offense.
The fact that Dallas is on this list is a bit of a downer, as no Big Blue supporter wants to see Beckham suit up for the enemy. A move to Green Bay or Buffalo wouldn’t be fun to see either. The Packers might be the most desperate of all the teams to ink Beckham, as their offense has reached a new low with Aaron Rodgers under center.
Things got even worse for them in the loss to the Detroit Lions, while Buffalo suffered the stunning loss to the Jets at MetLife Stadium in Week 9. With the Giants, this team doesn’t have a lot of cap space available, so if Beckham is indeed looking for a multi-year deal, that could complicate life for general manager Joe Schoen.
Regardless, the first-year GM needs to try and get creative and find a way to bring Beckham home. The NY wide receivers room needs some star talent to be added. Who better than one of the most electric players in franchise history? It’s time for Beckham to come make his return to New Jersey. We don’t want to even think about him packing his bags for Buffalo, Green Bay or Dallas.
