The Green Bay Packers' unwillingness to up their contract offer reportedly played a role in wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. signing with the Los Angeles Rams in free agency this week.
According to Jordan Schultz of Yahoo Sports, the Packers only offered OBJ the veteran minimum, while the Rams gave him a one-year deal with $4.25 million in guaranteed money, plus many incentives.
Schultz added that while Packers head coach Matt LaFleur wanted Beckham in the belief that his integration into the offense would be "seamless" and "positive," the Green Bay front office "lowballed" the three-time Pro Bowler.
