Dolphins officially waive Odell Beckham Jr.

Wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is officially a former member of the Dolphins.

Friday morning brought word that Beckham would be placed on waivers and the Dolphins announced the move a short time later. The other 31 teams in the league will be able to claim Beckham through Monday.

Beckham only had nine catches for 55 yards in nine games for the Dolphins, which makes it easy to understand why the two sides are parting ways. It's less clear if another team will take a flier on seeing if Beckham can be more of a contributor for them.

If a team does claim Beckham, they will take on the remainder of the one-year deal he signed with the Dolphins this offseason. That would cost in the neighborhood of $210,000 and we'll find out early next week if anyone rolls the dice on the veteran wideout.
