Report: Odell Beckham Jr. Believed To Have Torn ACL

Winning the Super Bowl didn’t come without a cost for receiver Odell Beckham Jr and the Los Angeles Rams.

The former Giant and Brown left the game in the second quarter with what was believed to be a non-contact knee injury. Now, according to Ian Rapoport, Beckham Jr. is said to have suffered a torn ACL. The same one he tore when he was with the Browns and was taking on… the Bengals.

Beckham Jr. had 27 receptions for 305 yards and five touchdowns in eight regular season games with the Rams after being released by the Browns. He was phenomenal in the postseason for the Rams, nearly matching his entire regular season production with 21 receptions for 288 yards and two touchdowns. Before exiting the Super Bowl, Beckham hauled in two receptions for 52 yards and scored the first touchdown of the game.

It will be another long road to recovery for the 29-year-old receiver who looked to be gaining his Pro Bowl form late in the season and into the playoffs. His future with the Rams is unknown as he is set to become a free agent once the new league year begins on March 16th.

His injury will most certainly impact his market, however, it won’t eliminate it as he should be well sought after even if he won’t be available to start the 2022 season. Remaining with the Rams could ultimately be the best option for Beckham.
