“2x All-Pro WR Odell Beckham Jr. has had positive discussions with the Cowboys, sources tell @theScore. There are several teams interested, but Dallas would like to make it work. I’m told OBJ is seeking a multi-year contract,” Jordan Schultz of The Score tweeted.
Beckham last played with the Los Angeles Rams after a somewhat productive stint with the Cleveland Browns. Beckham, however, tore his ACL in the Rams’ Super Bowl LVI win over Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals.

Beckham played collegiately with the LSU Tigers. The New York Giants drafted him with the 12th overall pick in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft.
Beckham played five seasons with the Giants before being traded to the Browns, where he played 2.5 seasons before being dealt to the Rams, where he won the only Super Bowl of his career.
Beckham earned NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2014 and is a two-time second-team All-Pro. He has also earned three Pro Bowl trips in his career.
