"Do you want to be a part of that s*itshow?" Ariel Helwani urges Odell Beckham Jr. to curve Cowboys in favor of Bills
Odell Beckham Jr. is still a free agent and many teams are trying very hard to bring him in. He will immediately turn the team into a Super Bowl contender, and the Buffalo Bills are one of the units that are interested in him.
Ariel Helwani, an MMA journalist and a big Buffalo Bills fan, initially didn't want OBJ to sign with the Bills. However, with their recent slip-up in form, Helwani is begging the former Rams receiver to come on board and ditch the Dallas Cowboys.
From @GMFB: The #Cowboys won’t stop talking about Odell Beckham Jr. https://t.co/lXLuyAswFg
Here's what Ariel Helwani said on Slow News Day:
"I'm going to speak directly to Odell Beckham Jr. and I'm going to say to him, I am sorry, I misspoke. My bad. We need you. And I would love to have you on the team."
Ariel Helwani added:
"Would you like to go to a warm weather place? What are the options? What are you gonna go [in] Dallas? I mean, really? Do you want to be a part of that s*itshow? No, you don't."
He continued:
"I saw what that team means to that community and how great and special of a place it is. And trust me, Odell Beckham, you have never experienced anything like this. Could you imagine what this would do to your life to your legacy?"
Helwani highlighted the fact that Odell Beckham Jr. will instantly become a legend in Buffalo and added:
"Could you imagine what this would do to the myth that is OBJ? If you are a part of the team that finally brings a Vince Lombardi trophy to Western New York, to the Buffalo Bills, to the greatest fan base in the history of sports, to the greatest team in the history of football."
It still isn't clear where Odell Beckham Jr. will sign. However, the Buffalo Bills are definitely an attractive destination for him. Along with the Kansas City Chiefs, the Bills are the team that has a good chance of winning the Super Bowl this season.
The prospect of warm weather could tilt OBJ to not sign with the Bills, but apart from that, it would be an ideal fit for both parties.
Odell Beckham Jr. is nearing a return to the field
Odell Beckham Jr. is cleared by the doctors to get back in action and the star receiver has started working on himself to attain match fitness. He is likely to sign with a contender around Thanksgiving and that could change the trajectory of the season.
Man obj talk to me !! @obj let’s do this shit!!! 🦁🦁 twitter.com/FanDuel/status…
Teams like the New York Giants, Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills, Green Bay Packers, and the Dallas Cowboys are presumed to be the frontrunners to sign OBJ. Last season, OBJ had 44 catches for 537 yards and scored five touchdowns in 14 games.
