Odell Beckham Jr. is going dark. The 26-year-old announced in a since-deleted Instagram post that he’s stepping away from social media to process all that has changed for him recently.

Alongside an image of a black box, the three-time Pro Bowler posted a lengthy caption telling people to fuck off for a while.

The caption reads:

“P.S.A. I love you all so much, for the ones that follow and support I thank u all for that. I’m takin an emotional, mental, physical/ blah blah blah vacation.

I appreciate the love honestly but at this moment for the next couple of days I’m goin dark. I won’t be around , phone is gone, with all due respect, please don’t text/ call / FaceTime unless it’s of the utmost importance . I really need some time to vibe and just get away, process, reevaluate some of the things in my life, as much has changed for me recently.”

Is this the exact moment Odell realized he has to live in Cleveland, Ohio for the foreseeable future? Have the Browns already broke him in the first week?

In any event, this brought joy to New Yorkers who are trying to rationalize their owners’ mind-numbing roster decisions.

What you guys think? Should Cleveland be scared?

The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
