Odell Beckahm Jr. said he almost retired from the NFL after suffering a broken ankle in 2017 with the New York Giants.
During a roundtable with Cam Newton, Todd Gurley and Victor Cruz, the star receiver said he was no longer enjoying the game after the injury (28:40 in video):
"I said this in college, I said, 'I fear the day that they make this game a business and not what I love,'" Beckham said (h/t TMZ Sports). "And when I seen that for the first time after breaking my ankle, I thought about not playing no more, like this is not really it for me because they've ruined the game of football for me a little bit.
