Odell Beckham Jr. helped the Rams punch their ticket to Super Bowl LVI on Sunday night, beating the 49ers, 20-17. It snapped their six-game losing streak to San Francisco, securing their spot in the big game against the Bengals on Feb. 13.
Beckham didn’t hold back with just how excited he is to be heading to the Super Bowl, running around on the field after the win. But he also showed class by taking a moment to console Deebo Samuel on the bench after the game ended.
Beckham stepped away from the celebration to talk to Samuel, though it’s unclear what was said.

Not even Samuel remembers what Beckham told him because he was so upset in the moment after the game had ended.
“To be honest with you, I don’t even remember,” Samuel said, via 49ers Webzone. “I was so upset and kind of really wasn’t paying attention. But I’ll try to chat with him later on.”
Beckham got a bad rap in Cleveland but with the Rams, he’s proved to be nothing other than a great teammate and a positive influence on the locker room. He’s clearly matured from his younger days with the Giants, and the Rams are fortunate to have him.
