The 2023 NFL offseason has already been filled with immense excitement.
Many teams have been incredibly active, signing players to help their teams make a gigantic leap in 2023.
For as many free agent signings as there have been, there are plenty of players that are still available, waiting to ink a new contract.
One of those players is Odell Beckham Jr., who hasn’t played in the league since he tore his ACL in the Super Bowl during the 2021 season.
Recent reporting from Damien Woody has linked Beckham to the New England Patriots, who have already been active during the offseason.

The Patriots have recently signed JuJu Smith-Schuster after losing Jakobi Meyers in free agency.
Woody believes that Beckham is just what this team needs to take another step forward.
Mac Jones hasn’t shown the type of development that the Patriots have been expecting up to this point.
Adding a veteran receiver like Beckham would not only help Jones succeed but also give Beckham another chance to succeed in the league.
It’s a win-win scenario, at least in the eyes of Woody.
Beckham was incredibly impactful for the Los Angeles Rams in 2021, especially in the postseason.
In four postseason games, he had 21 receptions for 288 yards and two touchdowns.
While he wasn’t always active during the regular season, he made a huge impact on the Rams’ Super Bowl run.
While the Patriots have found great success in the past under Tom Brady, the past few seasons haven’t quite had the same luster.
Will adding players like Beckham and Smith-Schuster make a difference, especially for this offense?
