Report: Odell Beckham not on trade block despite rumors
There has been a lot of talk about the New York Giants potentially trading Odell Beckham Jr. this offseason after they reportedly shopped him around a year ago, but they are apparently not thinking of moving the star wide receiver at this time.
ESPN’s Jordan Raanan reported on Thursday that Beckham is not currently on the trade block.
Cabo sun must be getting the best of me but I’m going to defend the Giants here:
1. OBJ isn’t on the trade block at this time
2. They likely will keep Collins
3. OK, no comment https://t.co/Niu2YKsYrt— Jordan Raanan (@JordanRaanan) February 21, 2019
Things could always change if a team blows the Giants away with an offer, but they were likely shopping him more before they signed him to a massive $95 million contract. It would not be a surprise if the Giants tried to see what they could get for Beckham (and one team was said to be quite interested) before they committed to him long-term.
For what it’s worth, one well-connected NFL reporter recently predicted that Beckham will be traded this offseason.
