Super Bowl 2022: Odell Beckham Jr. suffers knee injury one day before becoming a free agent

Bad news for OBJ as his situation with the Rams could get worse than his recent knee injury in Super Bowl LVI. His contract is about to end and with a new injury it is unlikely that the Rams will offer him a new contract.

Odell Beckham Jr, ring chaser, will fall short again this season as he suffered an injury that kept him out of the big game in the first half. It’s bad news for him and the Rams, but mainly for Odell’s contract with the franchise, which is about to expire in less than 24 hours.

The regular season with the Rams was good for Odell, a few games after his trade from the Browns, but Beckham showed that he was already recovered from that injury that ended his season in 2020.

Beckham Jr achieved his second official appearance in the playoffs but this time playing with the Rams, three games as a starter for 19 receptions, 236 yards, 12.4 yards per carry and a touchdown, and during the regular season his numbers were also good playing in Los Angeles.

This time it was the left knee of Odell Beckham Jr, it is unlikely that he will be able to play again in the 2022 Super Bowl since the Rams cannot risk that a player as special as him playing injured, that would be too easy for the defense of the Bengals.

When does Odell Beckham Jr’s contract run out?

OBJ’s contract with the Rams ends on February 14, 2022 as he signed a one-year contract for $1.25 million, with an annual salary of $750,000. But a few days ago he said he was ready to renew the contract for less money in order to continue playing for McVay and the Rams.
