Odell Beckham Jr. Signing: 5 NFL teams that are best suited to the former Rams WR

#3 San Francisco 49ers

Garoppolo can't run like Trey Lance, so naturally needs more receiving targets

Trey Lance’s injury has left the San Francisco 49ers in a difficult spot. Yes, they have a reliable quarterback in Jimmy Garoppolo, but their entire offense has had to switch back to the 2021 playbook. This has put Deebo Samuel back in the firing line with regards to having to do everything. Furthermore, he is having to do it without Raheem Mostert, who signed with the Miami Dolphins.

This was fine if you considered Lance an extra offensive option due to his athleticism and rushing skills. Without that, they may need an extra support receiver.

Odell Beckham Jr. would play a similar role in the Bay Area as he did with the Rams. It would be a one-year deal, where he would get a smaller number of targets, but he could end it with another Super Bowl.

The 49ers need an extra player to make their offense work. Garoppolo can’t rush like Lance and OBJ provides them with the perfect opportunity to sign such a talent.

#4 Chicago Bears

Chicago need an offensive spark like Odell Beckham Jr., otherwise Fields is going to fail

Justin Fields needs help. The hype surrounding Fields when the Chicago Bears drafted him was too high for them to waste his formative years with an inefficient offense. Chicago have chewed up young QBs and spit them out in recent years. The same can’t be allowed to happen to Fields, who is prodigiously gifted.

Odell Beckham Jr. has something of an ego. He considers himself to be the best wide receiver in the NFL. A task with the scale of elevating the Bears back into playoff contention could well interest him. He would once again be a WR1 which may suit him at 29 years old. He is in the prime of his career and should realistically be the focal point of an entire team by this point.

Fields would immediately have a concrete receiver he could trust. This can lift the team. Just look at how the Miami Dolphins’ offense thrived as soon as Tua Tagovailoa could throw at Tyreek Hill. OBJ going to Soldier Field could have the same positive impact on Fields.

#5 Kansas City Chiefs

Andy Reid's spectacular offense would offer Odell Beckham Jr. a chance to win another ring

Andy Reid’s offense in Kansas City is stacked. This is a team that has shown in their opening four NFL games that they are ready for another Super Bowl run. Patrick Mahomes is playing the best football of his career right now, and adding an additional option would not do any harm at all.

Tyreek Hill wasn’t necessarily replaced by the Kansas City Chiefs this offseason and it hasn’t been a problem yet. However, playoff teams will tell you that you can never have enough good players once January rolls around. Unfortunately, a lot of these options for Odell Beckham Jr. see him taking a one-year deal as an impact player. The upside is that he has a shot at another ring, but the downside is that it leaves him in the exact same situation this time next year.
