Odell Beckham continues to shine at Cleveland Browns training camp

Odell Beckham is shining at Cleveland Browns camp

Through two days of Cleveland Browns training camp, two names that keep popping up are star wide receiver Odell Beckham and defensive back Kevin Johnson. Nathan Zegura of Cleveland Browns Daily tweeted as much out on Sunday.

Why is this so big for the Browns? OBJ is finally healthy and performing the way fans expected from the beginning. The key now is to make it through the entire season without any tweaks.

Beckham finished the 2019 campaign with over 1,000 yards receiving, but a nagging abdominal injury and a few crucial drops on third down early in the season made the season feel like a disappointment. Not to mention the overall failure of the team with only six wins.

With Beckham healthy and motivated for the 2020 season he could stand to have a repeat of 2015 where he had 1,450 yards receiving to go along with 13 touchdowns. The Kevin Stefanski system could take some targets away from Beckham in 2020; however, there will be far more opportunities for big chunk play-action catches.

Not only will Stefanksi’s system help Beckham return to all-pro form because of the scheme, but the Browns roster is also loaded with talent with Nick Chubb (running back), Austin Hooper (tight end), and Jarvis Landry (wide receiver) which will draw less attention to the star.

The media seems to hone in on Beckham and trash his name, but what has the guy done than play his heart out through an injury in his one year with the Browns? I cannot stress this enough people…the Freddie Kitchens experiment was a complete disaster and cost the entire offense a year of improvement.

Look for 2020 to be the Browns redemption tour, and with a motivated Beckham, fans should be optimistic about big things.
