The unexpected gesture of Odell Beckham Jr that could bring him closer to the Chiefs of Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce

Odell Beckham Jr. remains one of the most naturally gifted wide receivers in the NFL. However, with his ambitions of winning a championship having been fulfilled, injuries and other scenarios have led him down a path whereby he can choose the team he wants to play for on a year-by-year basis.

In 2023 it was the Baltimore Ravens, where he struck up a magical partnership with league MVP Lamar Jackson.

It made the Baltimore offense exceedingly potent, although that level of quality deserted them when it mattered in the playoffs.

Beckham was on a one-year contract in Maryland and can now once again choose his destination as a free agent.

He is looking for the fine balance between money and a chance of success, and the rumor is that the Kansas City Chiefs could offer him both.

What has OBJ done to push himself towards Arrowhead Stadium?

It appears that the former New York Giants star is intent on moving to the Chiefs and linking up with Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce.

He would add a sensational new element to an offense that is so chameleon-like, you can put virtually anyone in it and it adapts and finds a way to succeed.

In 2023 there were concerns about the number of rookie receivers in the team, and how they continually dropped passes at key moments in the regular season.

However, who was on hand to grab some vital catches in the playoffs? The rookies and underperforming receivers, including Mecole Hardman who caught the winning pass in the Super Bowl.

Whilst some suspect that Beckham’s first choice is the Miami Dolphins, where he would live a nice life in the sun and partner up with Tyreek Hill, the receiver has never hidden his wish to one day play for the Chiefs.

Mahomes and Rashee Rice both recently posted Instagram pictures which Beckham interacted with.

“POPPPP ITTTT DENNNNNN *FIRE EMOJI, FIRE EMOJI, FIRE EMOJI,” Beckham posted under Rice’s upload.

“Boyyy u was getttjn grooovy huh @patrickmahomes,” were the words Beckham posted under Mahomes’ workout video.

The Chiefs are looking to sensibly upgrade at the receiver position, although they have a difficult cap situation to manage.

Many worried that personal problems would stop Beckham linking up with Kelce in Kansas City, mainly due to the fact his girlfriend, Kim Kardashian, didn’t get along with Taylor Swift.

With Kim-K now out of the picture, the good times can roll in Kansas City.
