PHOENIX – Odell Beckham Jr.’s new team is welcoming him with open arms. Literally.
Browns coach Freddie Kitchens said Tuesday at the NFL’s league meetings that his first words to the wide receiver, who was acquired in a trade with the Giants, simply will be “I love you,” punctuated by a hug.
“I love great players and I love great people,’’ Kitchens told reporters. “He's a great person above all else. Perception is not always reality. I'm anxious to get Odell there and get to know him as a person. His teammates love him. So I just want him to kind of assimilate into the team and get going.
