The Los Angeles Rams' approach to the offseason has been a complete 180 from the offseasons of the past when they were in complete pursuit of the Super Bowl. The Rams have not shown much of a priority to making outside additions via free agency or even trying to bring back some of their own free agents.
But could they be quietly working on making a potential unexpected splash by bringing back Odell Beckham Jr.?
The NFL Network's Jim Trotter described the Rams as a team watching Beckham's situation "closely."
"I've been told Odell has stayed in regular contact with Matthew Stafford as well as Cooper Kupp, and the GM Les Snead has remained in regular contact with Odell's agent," Trotter said.
As Trotter would point out, the Rams haven't been big spenders and aren't looking to become as they only sit on $8 million in projected cap space. But with Beckham's familiarity with the Rams' offense and Sean McVay, it could prove as a valuable deal for both sides.
Beckham could sign a one-year contract where he can reprove himself to those around the league after the ACL injury while the Rams add another piece to an offense that struggled in 2022.
Would OBJ take a prove-it deal to reunite with the Rams?
A recent tweet says he wouldn't, as Beckham publicly scoffed at the idea of being worth $4 million. But that was before the Dallas Cowboys seemingly took themselves out of the running with the trade deal to acquire Brandin Cooks.
Potentially with a less crowded market, the Rams could swoop in as the hero and sign Beckham to a deal that would see him return to Los Angeles.
