The NFL trade deadline will pass on Tuesday with Odell Beckham Jr. still a member of the Cleveland Browns. Per Dianna Russini of ESPN, the Browns have no plans to trade the mercurial wide receiver prior to the deadline.
Russini’s latest report echoes what has been consistently stated throughout the Cleveland media for several days.
There has been considerable speculation about Beckham’s fate, particularly after a game where he caught just one pass for six yards in a loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Beckham has 17 receptions on 34 targets, netting 232 receiving yards in six games. He has two more years remaining on his six-year, $90 million contract he signed with the New York Giants prior to being traded to Cleveland.
The Cleveland Browns have no plans on trading Odell Beckham Jr. by today’s trade deadline, per sources.
I was told there haven’t been any offers that would make sense for the organization.— Dianna Russini (@diannaESPN) November 2, 2021
Numerous injuries and an apparent lack of chemistry with Browns QB Baker Mayfield have blunted the impact Beckham was expected to have in Cleveland. But the Browns do not appear interested in parting ways at this time.
