Bills WATCH: Odell Beckham Jr. Workout VIDEO; Buffalo Convinced to Sign?
The Buffalo Bills made it clear that they were interested in receiver Odell Beckham Jr. after being one of the teams to attend his private workout in Arizona last Friday.
Along with the Bills, the three-time Pro Bowler was being evaluated at the workout by the Carolina Panthers, New York Giants, New England Patriots, Los Angeles Rams, San Francisco 49ers, Arizona Cardinals, Kansas City Chiefs, New York Jets, Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns and Minnesota Vikings, per reports from CBS Sports NFL insider Jonathon Jones.
And on Thursday, amid the free agency speculation, OBJ posted to Twitter a workout of him making the effortless one-handed catches we've become accustomed to. It's unclear if this workout footage is from the one he had in Arizona last week, though he's certainly still in the state, as the Arizona State Sun Devils logo can be seen in the background.
Regardless of when this footage was taken, it's hard to deny that Beckham Jr. still possess elite talent and always-incredible catch ability.
Is it enough to convince the Bills to sign him?
The team certainly seems ready to make a big move soon considering the recent contract restructuring of Josh Allen, Von Miller and Stefon Diggs, which created around $37 million in cap space combined.
However, if the Bills are serious about pursuing OBJ, the biggest asterisk surrounding him and the reason he's been unsigned for so long, is that he continues to recover from the torn ACL he suffered in the Super Bowl with the Los Angeles Rams in February 2022. That was the last time he appeared in an NFL game.
In 12 total games with LA (including postseason play), Beckham Jr. totaled 48 catches for 593 receiving yards and seven touchdowns. This included a much-needed performance in a 20-17 win over the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship, as Beckham Jr. had nine catches for 113 yards.
