Odell Beckham Jr. to sign for Miami Dolphins after being unemployed as fans claim they have ‘best receivers in football’
THE Miami Dolphins are bolstering their wide receiver room by signing veteran Odell Beckham Jr.
The Dolphins announced on Friday that they would be adding Beckham to the roster.
The Dolphins are signing Beckham to a one-year deal worth up to $8.25 million.
Beckham is working on reviving his career after a blistering start with the New York Giants.
Beckham was drafted with the 12th pick in the 2014 NFL Draft and was instantly a superstar in the league.
In his rookie season he went for 1,305 yards with 12 touchdowns, being named to the Pro Bowl and awarded Rookie of the Year honors.

Beckham didn't slow down after that, and went for 5,476 yards and 44 touchdowns in the first five years of his career with the Giants.
However, Beckham had a falling out with the Giants, and went on to sign with the Cleveland Browns in 2020.
He appeared to return to form in his first year with the Browns, going for 1,035 yards with four touchdowns, but his second year was riddle with injury.
In 2021, Beckham and the Browns reached an irreversible point in their relationship and he was released.
He would sign with the Los Angeles Rams later that season and won the Super Bowl with them.
Beckham suffered a devastating knee injury during that Super Bowl though, forcing him to miss the entire 2022 season.
In 2023, he made his triumphant return to the Baltimore Ravens and caught 35 passes for 565 yards and three touchdowns.
Now, fully healthy and looking for his second Super Bowl, Beckham is joining one of the most explosive offenses in the NFL in the Miami Dolphins and fans are hyped up about it.
"Best WR room in the league," one fan said.
"How many receivers do the Dolphins need?" another fan said.
"Good complement to Waddle and Hill," a third fan said.
"Solid pickup for the Dolphins," a fourth fan said.
Beckham will line up alongside Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle in what was the NFL's best passing offense in 2023.

Hill and Waddle reaped the benefits of that, going for 1,799 yards and 1,014 yards respectively.
