Odell Beckham Jr. is not ready to practice with the Miami Dolphins after signing a deal with the team this offseason.
It’s been more than three months since he was signed, yet the three-time Pro Bowler still has not seen the practice field due to a mysterious injury that occurred before he signed his name on the dotted line.
Beckham was placed on the physically unable to perform list with an undisclosed injury at the start of training camp and head coach Mike McDaniel said he would classify the receiver as “week to week.”
Well, now Odell Beckham Jr. is being accused of tricking the Miami Dolphins and using them to get a deal so he could possibly not play as much while being paid at the same time.
Beckham is being compared to what former wide receiver Will Fuller did to the them years ago.

Back in 2021, the Miami Dolphins signed wide receiver Will Fuller to a one-year, $10.6 million deal that saw him play him two games and rack up just four catches for 26 yards and zero touchdowns.
Fuller was an all-time miss by the team, as he was always hurt. He then retired midseason without actually submitting the paperwork to the league.
In the end, the Dolphins paid him $2.7 million per catch.
Odell Beckham Jr. has been a shell of himself in the last few years, and it appears he may be headed for the same type of ending as Fuller.
