CLEVELAND, Ohio – With the swirling rumors of free agency continuing to surround the NFL, superstar Odell Beckham Jr. could be avoiding finding a new team in 2021.

Despite reports that the Cleveland Browns could be looking to move the wide receiver, recent odds posted via the major Super Bowl betting sites have Beckham as a heavy favorite to remain in Cleveland.

The Browns come in as a massive -550 betting odds favorite to hold onto the receiver, who is coming off of a torn ACL that caused him to miss the majority of the 2020 season.

Where Will Odell Beckham Jr. Play For Game 1 Of The 2021 Regular Season?

• Cleveland Browns -550
• Tampa Bay Buccaneers +400
• Green Bay Packers +1200
• New York Jets +1200
• New England Patriots +1500
• San Francisco 49ers +2000
• Philadelphia Eagles +2000
• Las Vegas Raiders +2000

OBJ is one of the most popular and discussed players in the NFL thanks to his on and off-field antics, and his insane ability and talent.

Despite his incredibly high ceiling, Beckham has failed to play a full schedule of games in three of his last four seasons due to injury.

In his last full season in 2019, Beckham caught 74 passes for 1035 yards and four touchdowns. In seven games in 2020, OBJ caught 23 passes for 319 yards and three touchdowns

While his value is often debated, Beckham is certainly paid as one of the premier weapons in the NFL.

OBJ signed a five-year $90 million contract with the New York Giants back in 2018 before being traded to the Cleveland Browns in 2019.

His current cap hit for 2021 is $15.75 million dollars, which is an extremely high number for any wide receiver in today’s game.

This price tag has led many to predict if Beckham would be moved ahead of the 2021 season, especially with the emergence of Tee Higgins at wideout in Beckham’s absence.

This led to receiver-needy teams like the Green Bay Packers, New England Patriots, and San Francisco 49ers being rumored as possible trade destinations for Beckham.

Now, in March, it seems as if the NFL sportsbooks have decided that Beckham will most likely be staying put due to the nature of his contract.

The hope is that Beckham can return to his superstar status once he completes his road to recovery.

If so, it is hard to deny his value and abilities to a team in the passing game. Browns fans hope that Baker Mayfield can continue to develop chemistry with the receiver to lead them back into the playoffs in 2021.
