Odell won't play vs. Chiefs

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. won't be active Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs, according to Nate Ulrich of Akron Beacon Journal.

Beckham, who suffered a torn ACL last October, was considered a game-time decision prior to Cleveland's season opener. He didn't participate in any preseason games and has been limited at practice.

The 28-year-old is entering his third season in Cleveland after spending his first five NFL campaigns with the New York Giants. He topped 70 catches and 1,000 receiving yards in his first year with the Browns but was limited to 23 receptions for 319 yards and three scores through seven appearances in 2020.

Wide receivers Jarvis Landry, Donovan Peoples-Jones, and Rashard Higgins, and tight end Austin Hooper will be quarterback Baker Mayfield's main passing weapons in Beckham's absence against the Chiefs.
