Players' attention turning toward Odell Beckham Jr. following his denial of retirement speculations
In the upcoming 2025-26 NFL season, veteran wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is attracting interest from several teams as he prepares for a potential comeback.
Beckham, a three-time Pro Bowl WR and Super Bowl champion, has been training hard in anticipation of making a return to the field. His determination has not gone unnoticed, with several franchises keen on bolstering their wide receiver depth.
According to reports, the San Francisco 49ers, Cleveland Browns, Miami Dolphins, New York Giants, Baltimore Ravens, Los Angeles Rams, Minnesota Vikings, and New York Jets are among the teams showing interest in the talented receiver [1][3][5].
The San Francisco 49ers, who had a disappointing 2024 season, are considered a top potential landing spot for Beckham [1]. The Cleveland Browns, Miami Dolphins, New York Giants, Baltimore Ravens, and Los Angeles Rams have also expressed interest, with Beckham having played for some of these teams in recent years [3]. The Minnesota Vikings and New York Jets are also mentioned as logical fits given their wide receiver needs [5].
Despite his decreased production in recent years and a history of injuries, Beckham's extensive experience and Pro Bowl selections keep him on several teams' radars. However, it's worth noting that he recorded only 55 receiving yards in the 2024-25 season [4].
In the 2024-25 season, Beckham played nine games for the Miami Dolphins. Despite the modest statistics, his potential to contribute, particularly for teams with young quarterback prospects, could make him an attractive option for these teams.
Rumours of Beckham's retirement have been quashed, with the receiver himself denying any such plans. As the regular season approaches, expect these rumours to ramp up as teams continue to evaluate Beckham's potential [2].
With a fresh new start, Beckham could make a comeback in the NFL, adding another exciting chapter to his illustrious career.
