Odell Beckham Jr. Reinstated by NFL, Eligible to Sign Immediately

The 33-year-old wideout returns from a six-game PED ban tied to a 2024 failed test with Miami.

Overview

  • Commissioner Roger Goodell reinstated Beckham on Tuesday after he completed a six-game suspension for violating the NFL’s performance‑enhancing drug policy.
  • The suspension stemmed from a failed test during his 2024 stint with the Dolphins, which he accepted in October despite saying he did not knowingly use a banned substance.
  • Under league rules, free agents can serve suspensions while unsigned, so Beckham is cleared to join any team and play right away.
  • Beckham’s recent production has been limited, with nine catches for 55 yards for Miami in 2024 after posting 35 receptions for 565 yards and three touchdowns with the Ravens in 2023.
  • It remains uncertain whether a team will add him for the stretch run, though reports have floated potential fits and he has stated he intends to continue his career.
