Big D sounds open to adding a fair larger personality.
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones turned heads during a Friday radio appearance when he praised free agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. Specifically, he mentioned OBJ’s infamous one handed grab against the Cowboys as a member of the Recent York Giants in 2015.
“He made the best catch I’ve seen, apart from the one Dez [Bryant] made for the touchdown against Green Bay,” Jones said on 105.3 “The Fan” in Dallas. “Bottom line is, Odell is a player that I love quite a bit.”
The receiver remains to be recovering from a torn ACL he suffered during Super Bowl LVI, but could return to the sector later this season. Beckham, 29 is a free agent and waiting until he’s further along in his recovery to sign with a team.
A former member of the Los Angeles Rams, Cleveland Browns, and Giants, Beckham has expressed his respect for the Cowboys in 2020, and even mentioned that many members of his family are fans of the team.
“All of my family grew up in Texas in order that they are all huge Cowboy fans,” Beckham told The Athletic in 2020. “It has all the time been sort of a shaggy dog story with them so far as being in Recent York and them being in Dallas. I would not have any animosity, hate or rivalry with them.”
The Super Bowl champion was effective for the Rams after leaving Cleveland in the course of last season. He secured 27 catches for 305 yards and five touchdowns in eight games. He also corralled 21 catches for 288 yards and two touchdowns in 4 playoff games.
Although they’re a 5-2 team, the Cowboys could actually use an impact wideout corresponding to OBJ. Michael Gallup and CeeDee Lamb are Dallas’ marquee receivers, but Gallup has struggled since getting back from a torn ACL, catching only eight passes for 86 yards in 4 games.
