Fresh off a Super Bowl-winning campaign with the Los Angeles Rams, Odell Beckham Jr. is now a free agent heading into the 2022 NFL season.
During Saturday’s episode of NFL Total Access, NFL Network named a possible free-agency fit for the veteran wide receiver: the Green Bay Packers.

The Packers are starving for a No. 1 wide receiver option following the departure of All-Pro wideout Davante Adams. The current WR depth chart for back-to-back league MVP Aaron Rodgers currently consists of Allen Lazard, Randall Cobb and Amari Rodgers.
While Green Bay would no doubt love to land OBJ, the Rams are still very much in play to re-sign their midseason acquisition. After he was released by the Cleveland Browns in November, Beckham quickly filled in as a consistent producer for the soon-to-be Super Bowl champs.
Through eight regular-season contests, the 29-year-old wideout reeled in 27 receptions for 305 yards and five touchdowns.
Unfortunately, Beckham’s free-agency pursuits will be strongly affected by the ACL tear he suffered during the Rams’ Super Bowl victory. He’s not expected to return before the start of the 2022 season, but he is reportedly “recovering well” after his surgery back in late February.
Where would you like to see Beckham sign in 2022?
