Dolphins confirm offer made to WR Odell Beckham Jr.

Miami coach Mike McDaniel confirmed Monday that the Dolphins made an offer to free agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. last week.

Beckham, 31, visited with the Dolphins last week and the talks are "ongoing," McDaniel told the Miami Herald on Monday at the NFL's league meetings in Orlando, Fla.

"Things went great with him," McDaniel told the Herald. "We did make him an offer and business takes time, especially with players such as Odell, who's had a phenomenal career, still has really good football in front of him and has options. So, I think those conversations will be ongoing. We'll see where they go."

The Baltimore Ravens cut Beckham earlier this month. He caught 35 passes for 565 yards and three touchdowns in 14 games (six starts) during the 2023 regular season and added four receptions for 34 yards in the playoffs.

The Dolphins are looking for a new WR3 behind stars Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle after losing Cedrick Wilson to the New Orleans Saints in free agency.

"(I'm) definitely ready to coach him if we can come to an agreement and I think both sides are trying to work towards that," McDaniel said. "We'll see what happens."

Should Beckham join Miami, it will be his fifth stop. The New York Giants selected him No. 12 overall in the 2014 NFL Draft, and he also played for the Cleveland Browns (2019-21), Los Angeles Rams (2021) and Ravens.

A three-time Pro Bowl selection, Beckham missed the 2022 season as he recovered from a torn ACL suffered in the Rams' win in Super Bowl LVI.

Beckham has 566 career receptions for 7,932 receiving yards and 59 touchdowns in 110 games (97 starts).
