Jerry Jones all but confirms WR Odell Beckham Jr signing with Dallas Cowboys
There has been plenty of speculation about where Odell Beckham Jr will be playing his football this season. The wide receiver has been a free agent since winning the Super Bowl with the Los Angeles Rams last season.
Beckham has been a free agent ever since he suffered his injury in the Super Bowl against the Cincinnati Bengals. However, the three-time Pro Bowler has now recovered and is set to return for the business end of the season.
Beckham had been linked to a number of NFL teams but there had been significant interest from the Dallas Cowboys. It was reported that the NFC East giants were interested in the wideout as well to power their offense.

However, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has seemingly confirmed that Beckham will be joining the Dallas outfit soon to help them in the postseason. While speaking to USA Today, Jones said, “Odell’s going to join us. There’s a good chance he will, with the complete goal of getting ready for a playoff game or two, and then I’ll look to the future. But most of it is about now.”

The Cowboys are currently 10-3 and second in the NFC East. They are almost on the verge of making the playoffs and gathering a squad that will certainly look to challenge for the Super Bowl. With Beckham also on the cusp of joining the Cowboys, quarterback Dak Prescott will have a top reliable offensive weapon.
The Cowboys will face divisional rivals Philadelphia Eagles, who have already clinched the division, in Week 15 of the NFL this weekend.
