Green Bay, WI – The Green Bay Packers are set to make headlines once again, as one of the NFL’s most recognizable wide receivers prepares to join the team following his six-game suspension for PED use.

According to league insider Tom Pelissero, the Packers and former All-Pro receiver Odell Beckham Jr. have reached an agreement in principle on a one-year, $3 million contract, pending final reinstatement by the NFL. The deal is expected to be finalized later this week, paving the way for Beckham’s long-awaited return to the field — and his first-ever stint in Green Bay.

Beckham, 32, has openly praised the Packers organization and quarterback Jordan Love in recent interviews, noting his admiration for the young star’s poise and leadership.

“At this stage of my career, I’m not chasing fame or stats — I’m chasing legacy,” Beckham said. “When I stepped into Green Bay, I felt something different. That team breathes tradition, focus, and belief. I really admire Jordan Love — he’s got that calm confidence and quiet fire that great quarterbacks have.”

For the Packers, Beckham brings not just a veteran presence, but a proven playmaker who can add firepower and experience to a talented young receiving corps led by Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, and Romeo Doubs.

After bouncing between the Ravens and Dolphins with limited production (just 9 receptions for 55 yards in 2024), Beckham’s arrival in Green Bay signals a potential turning point — a chance to rewrite the final chapter of his storied career with one of the league’s most iconic franchises.

💚🧀 Packers Nation, get ready — Odell Beckham Jr. is coming to Titletown, and he’s out to prove he still has plenty left in the tank.
