Odell Beckham Jr has not found the end zone much in his first season with the Cleveland Browns, but the star receiver was able to end the season on a high note in Sunday’s game.
With his team trailing the one-win Cincinnati Bengals by two scores in the fourth quarter, Beckham made one of his vintage acrobatic catches and somehow got both feet down in the end zone. The grab also put him over 1,000 yards receiving for the season.

Beckham entered the game with just three touchdown passes, so he must have been happy to finally add to his total. That is the type of play we expected to see from him and Baker Mayfield all season, but a nagging injury and an underachieving offense kept him from consistency.
While the speculation about the Browns potentially trading Beckham has increased in the wake of his sideline exchange with head coach Freddie Kitchens, he’s still unlikely to be moved this offseason. Cleveland traded a first-round pick for him with visions of him making touchdown grabs like the one he made on Sunday, and he should get plenty more chances to do that in 2020.
