Odell Beckham Jr. has sat out back-to-back Miami Dolphins practices for what the team is calling personal reasons. On Thursday night, he posted a cryptic message that suggested he may not be returning to the team anytime soon.
In an image posted on his Instagram story, Beckham wrote “ima always land on my feet.” Via @obj:
Beckham, 32, joined Miami earlier this year on an incentive-laden one-year contract. After beginning the season on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list, Beckham made his Dolphins debut in October, but has mostly been a non-factor in the team’s offense.
In nine games, he’s recorded nine receptions for 55 yards without a touchdown. In the last three weeks, he has only two grabs for 10 yards.
The team recently brought River Cracraft back into the fold after a stint on injured reserve, and it also opened the practice window for receiver Grant DuBose to return from IR as well. Couple those returns with an uptick in offensive snaps for rookie Malik Washington and it wouldn’t be a huge surprise if the Dolphins were ready to part with Beckham.
