Rams sign Odell Beckham Jr.
The Los Angeles Rams aren't done adding superstars.
Free-agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. agreed to join the Rams, the team announced Thursday.
The two sides inked a one-year deal worth up to $4.25 million, a source told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Los Angeles will reportedly give Beckham a $500,000 signing bonus and $750,000 in salary for the rest of the season, with the remaining $3 million on the deal tied to team-based incentives.
The Cleveland Browns released Beckham last week, ending a tumultuous two-plus-season stint together. He went unclaimed on waivers Tuesday, hitting free agency for the first time in his career.
Beckham generated interest from several teams after being cut, including the Green Bay Packers, who were finalists to sign him, according to NFL Network's Kim Jones.
The New Orleans Saints, Kansas City Chiefs, Seattle Seahawks, and New England Patriots also reportedly pursued the three-time Pro Bowler.
Beckham is the second high-profile player to join the Rams over the last 10 days after the team acquired linebacker Von Miller from the Denver Broncos last week.
The 29-year-old will join a star-studded receiving corps in L.A. that also features wide receivers Cooper Kupp, Robert Woods, and Van Jefferson, and tight end Tyler Higbee. Kupp currently leads the league in receptions (74), yards (1,019), and touchdown catches (10).
The Rams, who traded quarterback Jared Goff to the Detroit Lions for Matthew Stafford in the offseason, also began 2021 with veteran DeSean Jackson on the roster but released the three-time Pro Bowl wideout last week after failing to deal him at the deadline.
Beckham joined the Browns in 2019 in a trade from the New York Giants. He was one of the NFL's most productive wideouts from 2014-18 in New York, but his numbers declined over three seasons in Cleveland.
The former first-round pick has racked up just 17 catches for 232 yards with no touchdowns through six appearances in 2021. Beckham didn't play his first game this season until Week 3 due to a torn ACL.
