Odell Beckham Jr. has publicly confirmed that he is not retiring from the NFL, reopening the possibility of signing with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Mike Tomlin needs an experienced receiver to support Aaron Rodgers, and in an interview on Bill Maherâs Club Random, the former Giants star admitted that this option is possible.
âI love Aaron Rodgers. Weâve had conversations. I wonât say that itâs not a possibility and I wonât say that I havenât had any communication. I love Tomlin. I was actually supposed to be drafted to the Steelers. That was the meeting that I had that I was like: âI think Iâm going to the Steelers.â Then, the Giants took me at No 12. I think the Steelers had the 16th pick maybe.â
In fact, the Steelers had the 15th pick in the 2014 Draft, and when Odell was no longer available, they chose to select Ryan Shazier. Now, a reunion with Rodgers could happen as they aim to win another Super Bowl.
Is Odell Beckham Jr. retiring?
Odell Beckham Jr. is not retiring. The veteran wide receiver confirmed on social media that all the rumors are false and that âheâs not done yet.â As a result, the Steelers could be now on his radar.
Who are the Steelers wide receivers right now?
DK Metcalf, Calvin Austin III, Roman Wilson, and Robert Woods are the Steelersâ wide receivers right now, but since George Pickensâ departure to the Cowboys, many rumors suggest that general manager Omar Khan is looking for a No. 2 WR.
Although Beckham is far from that caliber currently, the Super Bowl champion could still help the team by adding depth to the wide receiver group. A very intriguing story.
