Daily Dawg Tags: Rumors flying around Odell Beckham, Cleveland Browns
By Dan Justik
The Daily Dawg Tags brings you all the Cleveland Browns news you need to know, including rumors continuing to fly around Odell Beckham Jr.
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is not having the type of season anyone expected to have. He is on pace for his worst full season and it is taking a toll on Beckham’s desire to be in Cleveland.
After Beckham said rumors about him not wanting to be in Cleveland were not accurate, Jay Glazer reported Sunday that Beckham is telling player and coaches to “come get him” before and after games. After the game, Beckham had not comment about the report.
Beckham has clearly been frustrated this season, mostly because he does not appear to be a huge fit in the offense. The Browns are not making a concerted effort to get him the ball and are trying to target him within the flow of the offense. However, that is causing the Browns to not even look Beckham’s way for long stretches during games.

Cleveland Browns News
"The Cleveland Browns got a win Sunday over an instate division rival and kept alive their postseason hopes, but even all that good news couldn’t quite lift the cloud of turmoil that always seems to waft over the long-downtrodden franchise."
Beckham not deciding to nip the rumors right away seemed like it meant there was some validity to the rumors. But now that there are even more rumors, it seems to be clear Beckham is not happy with the Browns. For all of the issues surrounding the Browns this season, these types of rumors are exactly what they did not need.
Instant reactions to Browns Week 14 win over Cincinnati
The Browns continued to play sloppy football on Sunday against the Bengals, but still came away with a victory. Christopher Markoch shared his instant reactions to Cleveland’s Week 14 win over the Bengals.
"The Browns can do no better than 9-7. So aside from winning their remaining games, they need at least one Wild Card spot to remain within reach of a nine-win team. That scenario remains possible after Sunday’s games."
After digging themselves their own grave this season, the Browns are going to need a lot of help in the last three weeks to potentially reach the postseason. They didn’t get the help they needed Week 14, but they are still somehow alive.
