The New England Patriots are now eyeing Beckham after his stint with the Cleveland Browns. Even Bill Belichick has stated that he really wants him on the team, according to the source.
Beckham had 232 yards receiving with zero touchdowns in 2021 before getting released by the Browns.
If Beckham does get picked up by the Patriots, this would only be his third team he’s played for in his career. Beckham was taken by the New York Giants in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft with the No. 12 pick.
OBJ has 7,062 yards receiving and 52 touchdowns in his eight-year NFL career.
