Odell Beckham Jr. and the Miami Dolphins mutually agreed to part ways on Friday as he looks to latch onto a playoff team. Beckham Jr. had a minimal role with Miami since signing in the summer.

This season, Beckham Jr. had just nine catches for 55 yards in nine games with the Dolphins. According to NFL insider Tom Pelissero, OBJ is looking for more opportunities elsewhere. He will officially clear waivers on Monday and be free to sign with any team afterwards. If he's claimed off waivers, the team would have to pay Beckham's salary which is roughly $200,000 for the remainder of the season and is not close to the incentives in the deal.

With Beckham Jr. wanting to sign with a new team, here are five potential landing spots for the three-time Pro Bowler.

5 landing spots for Odell Beckham Jr.

1] Washington Commanders

The Washington Commanders are likely to make the playoffs with a rookie quarterback in Jayden Daniels.

However, the Commanders could use an upgrade in the receiver room. Beckham Jr. would add some veteran experience to the locker room and could be a good safety blanket up the middle for Daniels. Beckham Jr. won a Super Bowl with the Rams and knows what it takes to win.

2] Baltimore Ravens

The Baltimore Ravens made a move to acquire Diontae Johnson before the deadline but it hasn't worked out.

Johnson has had a minimal role and was also suspended for a game for refusing to go back into a game. All things considered, the Ravens still could add another receiver and they are familiar with Beckham Jr. He played in Baltimore in 2023, recording 35 receptions for 565 yards and 3 touchdowns. He would be familiar with the system and be able to have an immediate impact.

3] Los Angeles Rams

A reunion with the Los Angeles Rams makes sense for both parties.

Beckham Jr. played with the Rams in the second half of the 2021 season and helped the team win a Super Bowl. The receiver was an important part of the offense and could serve as a depth receiver on the roster. Los Angeles is fighting for the NFC West title and adding Beckham Jr. would make their offense that much better for a playoff run.

4] Kansas City Chiefs

The Kansas City Chiefs and Odell Beckham Jr. have been linked in the past, and perhaps they can finally make something work.

The Chiefs lost Hollywood Brown and Rashee Rice to injuries this season. Kansas City did trade for DeAndre Hopkins but the Chiefs could still use another receiving option. Adding another weapon for Andy Reid to scheme in and Patrick Mahomes to throw to would make KC that much more dangerous.

5] Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are battling for the NFC South and adding another offensive weapon makes a lot of sense. The Bucs never replaced Chris Godwin, so Beckham Jr. could be his replacement and be a safety blanket up the middle.
