Odell Beckham Jr. reportedly names four teams he's interested in playing for
The Odell Beckham Jr. sweepstakes are in full swing. The free agent receiver is hot property as several teams are looking at acquiring his services. While he is still recovering from his ACL injury sustained in last year's Super Bowl, that hasn't stopped teams from trying to get in first.
With so many teams wanting the 30-year-old as part of their franchise, the man himself may have just given away the teams he would want to sign for.
In a sit-down with Complex Volume, the receiver gave the names of teams he would like to sign for. And there's only four of them.
Beckham Jr. said:
“Whether its Buffalo, whether it was Green Bay callin, the Cowboys, reunion with the Giants, I want to be able to spill like my last not saying I only got three of four left, but these next three of four years, into somewhere where I can buy a home.”
“Whether it’s Buffalo, Green Bay calling, the Cowboys, reunion with the Giants…”

So there you have it. Take it as you will. Buffalo, Dallas, Green Bay and New York. Which team will win the bidding for the star free agent?
Where will Beckham Jr. sign this season?
Those four teams are interesting, given three are in playoff contention. The Bills present a chance for the 30-year-old to go on a deep playoff run and not be the number one guy, similar to his time in L.A. That worked well.
Then, there is the Cowboys. America's Team. Adding the receiver would put Mike McCarthy's team over the top in terms of offense. Beckham Jr., along with CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup, Dalton Schultz and Noah Brown, that's an interesting mix.
Jerry Jones wants to put his best foot forward for this season in terms of trying to secure that elusive Super Bowl.
Then, there's the Giants. The homecoming where he made his name. It would bring back all sorts of nostalgia for the 30-year-old. Sitting at 6-2, like Dallas, they are right in the thick of the playoff hunt.
It would give Daniel Jones a serious weapon on offense and could be the missing piece.
The Packers are an interesting option. If Beckham Jr. wants to win playoff games and a Super Bowl, then Green Bay likely isn't his first choice this season given their 3-6 record.
The next few weeks promise to be fascinating.
