The Miami Dolphins made a contract offer to wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. last week, coach Mike McDaniel said Monday during the NFL's league meetings in Orlando, Florida.
Beckham visited the Dolphins last week but left without signing a contract. McDaniel, however, said he believes the contract talks will be "ongoing."
"Things went great with him," McDaniel told reporters of the visit. "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."
McDaniel added that he is "definitely ready to coach him if we can come to an agreement, and I think both sides are trying to work towards that. We'll see what happens."
The Dolphins are looking to sign a No. 3 wide receiver behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. Cedrick Wilson Jr., who held that role last season, signed with the New Orleans Saints as an unrestricted free agent.
Beckham, 31, remains one of the most popular names in the NFL despite his production slipping over the years. He has failed to eclipse 50 catches or 600 yards receiving in each of his past three seasons played, which were heavily impacted by injuries.
In 2020, Beckham tore the ACL in his left knee while with the Cleveland Browns, forcing him to miss the final nine games of the season. After getting released by the Browns midway through the 2021 season, he joined the Los Angeles Rams and helped them win the Super Bowl, where he injured his left knee again.
Beckham sat out the entire 2022 season before signing a one-year, $15 million deal with the Baltimore Ravens, which was one of the biggest one-year payouts given to a wide receiver last offseason. He finished with underwhelming numbers (35 catches for 565 yards and three touchdowns), but teammates credited his leadership and experience in guiding Baltimore to a league-best 13-4 record in the regular season.
After the Ravens' AFC Championship Game loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, Beckham said, "If there is anything I felt about myself -- regardless of anybody's opinion or anything like that -- is that I know that I can still play football, and I know that I still have s--- in the tank."
Last week, Beckham posted a goodbye to Baltimore on social media. Ravens coach John Harbaugh indicated Monday that it came down to financial reasons as to why Beckham won't be back with the team next season.
"It was just more financial," he said. "Just from a number standpoint, probably as much from we're at, we're in a tight set [salary] cap-type situation and kind of was a mutual understanding I think that way."
