According to NFL reporter Tom Pelissero, the Miami Dolphins and wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. have agreed to part ways and the team is going to release him so he can play elsewhere. Beckham is subject to waivers but it is highly unlikely any teams at the top of the waiver wire are interested and the odds are good Beckham clears and can sign wherever he wants.
If there was ever a one-year rental player who could come in and help the Pittsburgh Steelers, it might be Beckham. With George Pickens nursing a hamstring injury and a brutal stretch of games coming up, Beckham could be the veteran presence that quarterback Russell Wilson needs.

Beckham is in his 10th NFL season and while he isn’t the player he was back in the 2010s, assuming he’s healthy he’s got plenty to offer a quality team like the Steelers who is shorthanded at wide receiver if the price is right.
