The NFL regular season is quickly coming to an end as teams across the league fight for playoff positioning. Recently, the Dallas Cowboys and Buffalo Bills both signed veteran wide receivers.
However, neither of them is Odell Beckham Jr. For that reason, fans are now pondering his future in the league.
According to Tom Pelissero, the Cowboys signed TY Hilton while the Bills signed Cole Beasley. That means two of the three teams Odell Beckham Jr. visited chose to go a different route. With the injury concern still an issue, we have to start wondering if we’ll ever see Beckham in the NFL this season.
Free-agent WR Odell Beckham Jr. visited three teams over the past couple weeks. Two of them — the #Cowboys (T.Y. Hilton) and #Bills (Cole Beasley) — have now signed other veteran receivers who are ready, willing and able to play in the regular season.

It’s fully clear how serious Beckham’s injury is. However, rumors are that he won’t be ready to go until the playoffs. There is also a chance he’s incapable of even playing this year due to the injury. With that in mind, NFL fans are confused by his tactics and ponder his future in the league.
He literally said he doesn’t see the point of playing in the regular season, why do you want someone on your team with that outlook, he’s pure toxicity. I hope the Giants sign him.

This part stuck out to us too.
“willing and able to play in the regular season.”

At least New York Giants fans are still hopeful.
Two teams making the playoffs needed someone they could count on physically for the stretch run. Odell back to NY with Saquon and a new QB next season.

With the NFL playoffs around the corner, Odell Beckham Jr. might still be on the radar for the postseason push. Even so, it’s not a great look that both the Cowboys and Bills opted to sign different players.
