The Kansas City Chiefs are expected to add a receiver during the 2024 offseason after their pass-catchers underwhelmed last year.
While Rashee Rice’s job is secure heading into next season, his positional running mates may be at risk of losing their spots on Kansas City’s roster.
Former Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III took to social media on Friday to give his take on the Chiefs’ receiver situation, suggesting that the reigning Super Bowl champions should sign Odell Beckham Jr. in the offseason.
The @chiefs SHOULD SIGN Odell Beckham Jr. Last year he proved he is STILL DYNAMIC after being 8th in the NFL averaging 16.1 yards per catch. The @Chiefs struggled with drops last year, but @obj had the lowest drop rate of his career with 1 drop on 64 targets (1.6%). Chief him. pic.twitter.com/QpP1xSnnVP

Beckham played for the Baltimore Ravens last year after stints with the Los Angeles Rams and Cleveland Browns but didn’t achieve the prolific production that many fans in the Charm City expected.
Despite this, he remains one of the NFL’s most popular wide receivers and could benefit from playing with a quarterback like Patrick Mahomes in the twilight of his career.
Check out what users on Twitter thought about RGIII’s proposal below:
Sign me up for a 1 year deal worth up to $3 million dollars.
OBJ is nowhere near the player he was 5 years ago, but like @RGIII said, OBJ still has reliable hands and that was the #1 killer for the Chiefs offense this season.
Pair him with Rice/another notable veteran… https://t.co/r1tPEOs2R9

So you want to add Kim Kardashian in the suite with Taylor Swift? Got it https://t.co/FMPLBL1vV1

The #Chiefs need something consistent at WR, and OBJ is the opposite of consistent at this point in his career. Too many injury questions. https://t.co/OxMmZst3z3

Thoughts? He signed a 1 year $15M deal with the Ravens last year and there's NO WAY the Chiefs would offer anything even remotely close to that https://t.co/W0kKhCRSj4

As a 31 year old the Ravens paid him $15 million to play in 14 games, catch 35 balls and score only 3TDs. Chiefs aren’t going anywhere near that. https://t.co/Um0aHpwY8P

Yeah no thanks. He caught 35 balls last year and only managed to score 3 times. https://t.co/74Pb0QIn0j
