Marquee free agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is hinting he only wants to play in the NFL playoffs.
Beckham Jr., who hasn't played since tearing his ACL in last year's Super Bowl victory for the Los Angeles Rams, said on NFL on Prime on Thursday that his focus is signing with a team for the post-season.
"I would like to be in a stable environment. Get up 6 a.m., leave at 6 p.m. for four weeks and then let’s talk about it," Beckham Jr. said. "I’ve played football for a long time. I’m not saying I couldn’t step in and play regular season, but I don’t see the point. I really don’t. I’d rather play when that pressure’s on.”
In the past two weeks, Beckham Jr. has had visits with the Dallas Cowboys, Buffalo Bills and New York Giants.
A three-time Pro Bowler, Beckham, 30, has had more than 1,000 receiving yards in five of his eight NFL seasons with the Giants, Cleveland Browns and Rams.
