Odell open to taking less to stay with Rams: This place feels like 'home'
Odell Beckham Jr. is open to re-signing with the Los Angeles Rams in the offseason, even if it means accepting less money.
"Yeah, of course," Beckham said when asked about sacrificing money to stay with the Rams by Nick Shook of NFL.com.
"This place, it feels good in my heart. It feels like a home."
Beckham, who is set to be a free agent this offseason, has been instrumental in the Rams' run to Super Bowl LVI since joining the team midseason. Emerging as a key target for quarterback Matthew Stafford, he's recorded 541 yards and six touchdowns across 10 total games with the club.
The 29-year-old also expressed regret regarding his midseason release by the Cleveland Browns, which prompted his move to Los Angeles. Beckham and the Browns parted ways after his father released a video documenting missed and errant throws from his former quarterback Baker Mayfield.
"One of the biggest regrets that I have about the way things ended is I just didn't get ... it's like having a breakup, but there really was no closure, and it's kind of just like you go, that's just it," Beckham said.
He added: "A lot of things were out of my control. By the time I woke up, the video was already posted. It just was unfortunate. Sometimes things go that way in life, and you just kind of got to roll with the punches. I just think about, here I am now and just making the most of the opportunity that I have."
A three-time Pro Bowler, Beckham will be looking to win the first Super Bowl of his career Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals.
