Odell Beckham Jr. Jokes Playing as Johnny Manziel on LSU Scout Team Wore Him out

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is sticking to his day job.

The 27-year-old revealed Thursday that he was "tired affff" after playing quarterback for LSU's scout team to prepare the defense for then-Texas A&M star quarterback Johnny Manziel:

Beckham could be referring to either of LSU and Texas A&M's matchups on Oct. 20, 2012, or Nov. 23, 2013. LSU won both times—24-19 and 34-10, respectively. Manziel was held to 276 yards, no touchdowns and three interceptions in 2012 followed by 224 yards, one touchdown and two picks in 2013. Beckham combined for 85 yards on nine catches across both contests.
