Jerry Jones Seems To Have Made His Final Decision On WR Odell Beckham Jr.
It seems like Dallas Cowboys fans hoping for Odell Beckham Jr. to join their team this holiday season will be disappointed.
Indeed, during Jerry Jones' Friday radio show, the Cowboys owner clarified that Odell joining his franchise probably wouldn't help his team. At times, reports said that Beckham was a done deal to join the Cowboys. It's not the case anymore.
«Well, I think the big thing is me or whoever has let enough time go as we get toward the end of the season that it's not realistic to think about having him in any meaningful way for the playoffs,» Jones said. «That's not dismissing [signing Beckham in] the future, but it is dismissing, for the most part, the reality of him getting in here and helping us in the playoffs. That was a big part of the equation.»
That said, it looks as if Beckham will make his decision during the off-season. This means that a team like the Chicago Bears, who are not contenders right now, could potentially make a push to sign the talented wide receiver next year. A healthy OBJ would be very beneficial for a young QB, Justin Fields, who needs weapons around him.
