Sean McVay seems to close the door on an Odell Beckham Jr. reunion

When asked earlier this week about possibly adding receiver Odell Beckham Jr. to the roster, Rams coach Sean McVay said, “That’s something we’ve not talked about yet.”

And so, when McVay met with reporters on Wednesday, he was asked whether the discussion has occurred. The answer this time was more definitive.

“No, we haven’t talked about it,” McVay said. “I love Odell. It’s not something that I think is something that we’re looking at right now.”

Beckham spent part of 2021 with the Rams. Even though he arrived with a torn ACL, he played with it until the knee gave out during the first half of Super Bowl LVI. At the time he left, Beckham was having the kind of game that could have propelled him to Super Bowl MVP.

Beckham didn’t play at all in 2022. He spent 2023 with the Ravens. Last week, the Dolphins released him. On Monday, Beckham cleared waivers.

He reportedly has a short list of teams he’d play for. However, no reports linking him to any specific franchise have emerged.

That doesn’t mean it won’t happen. There’s value in taking the Daniel Jones approach — join a practice squad, stay involved, and wait to see if an injury with a contending team opens the door for a chance to play in the postseason.

Beckham can sign with any team, at any time. He could wait until the Super Bowl teams are known, and sign with one of them. Still, the absence of any indication that anyone is trying to sign him could be regarded as proof that it’s not going to happen.

If not, the question becomes whether there will be interest in 2025. There’s a chance that, nearly 11 years after entering the league as a first-round draft pick, the door is closed for all 32 teams.
