Odell Beckham Jr. on his trade to the Browns: 'It’ll be one of the best things that ever happened to me in my life.'
"This can’t be real," Beckham said, a tuft of bleached blond hair poking out from under his orange cap.His drama-filled days in New York behind him, Beckham was introduced Monday by the Browns, whose acquisition of the former Giants star wide receiver has triggered wild expectations for a team that didn’t win one game two years ago.
"I think I’ve come to grips with everything," Beckham said, discussing his big change in an overflowing media room at the team’s headquarters. "It’ll be one of the best things that ever happened to me in my life." "I definitely want to be here and create that bond," he said. "I definitely wanted to be here today."
Beckham said that after he learned he was headed to Cleveland, he called LeBron James and asked the NBA superstar about the area.
