Jerry Jones’ Dallas Cowboys met with Odell Beckham Jr. this past week as the free agent is all set to join a new team in the remaining regular season. Given that the reigning Super Bowl Champ is looking to join a Super Bowl contender, there are several teams on his raider.
But after the meeting with the Cowboys, Odell Beckham Jr. did not come out with a contract, rather his medical information was leaked. This might hurt the chances of the same team to sign the veteran WR. Given that several marquee stars from the same team have tried to verbally lure Beckham Jr.’s attention, this could be a huge reason why he skips them.
Dallas Cowboys are concerned with Odell Beckham Jr.’s knee injury. For those unaware – Odell Beckham Jr. tore his ACL in the previous Super Bowl. Subsequently this information leaked can damper his expected numbers on the upcoming contract.
Shannon Sharpe gives advice to Odell Beckham Jr.
On the same note, on the latest episode of Undisputed, Hall of Famer turned analyst – Shannon Sharpe said, “His medicals only came public- that the knee wasn’t where it should be or how they think it should be- only after he met with the Cowboys. If I’m Odell, I’m extremely upset. And I’d be looking at some action, maybe I might need to sue. Because this didn’t get out at any other place.”
“Now, I’m sure the Giants medical team looked at that knee. I’m sure the Buffalo Bills medical team looked at that knee. But only after this! Jerry kept dropping breadcrumbs along the way that he wasn’t as in on Odell as maybe Micah Parsons. But come on, you don’t have to do this.”
Will this be just moment where Buffalo Bills or New York Giants edge past Dallas Cowboys to sign this experienced WR? Remains to be seen.
