Dolphins will put Odell Beckham on waivers

Odell Beckham's days as a Dolphin are over.

The Dolphins will place Beckham on waivers, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. He'll be available for any team to claim on Monday, and if no team claims him he'll be an unrestricted free agent after clearing waivers.

The report calls it a mutual agreement and says Beckham hopes to find more opportunities elsewhere. Realistically, given that he has looked like a shell of his former self and caught just nine passes in nine games this season, there probably won't be a whole lot of teams looking to give him that opportunity, but it only takes one.

Beckham was the NFL's offensive rookie of the year in 2014 and one of the best wide receivers in the NFL in his first three seasons with the Giants. But it's been a long time since he has played at that level, and his skills have eroded as he's moved from the Browns to the Rams to the Ravens and now to the Dolphins.

Beckham hasn't been practicing this week for what the Dolphins described as personal reasons, but he'll be ready next week — if any team wants him.
