Ryan Clark and Mike Epps Back Odell Beckham Jr. as $100 Million Take-Home Debate Intensifies

Beckham says the viral clip distorted his explanation of how a five-year, $100 million deal nets far less after taxes, agent fees, routine expenses.

Overview

  • Ryan Clark argued Beckham’s remarks on The Pivot were context-driven, stressing the point was about net pay rather than endorsing reckless spending.
  • Mike Epps told TMZ he agrees with Beckham’s framing, saying costly lifestyles can quickly erode large earnings and urging tighter spending control.
  • Shannon Sharpe criticized the claim, saying roughly $60 million should sustain a lifetime and questioning big-ticket purchases for relatives.
  • Beckham posted on X that his comments were taken out of context after the podcast clip resurfaced and drew heavy online reaction.
  • Coverage notes Beckham has earned more than $101 million in his career and remains unsigned this season as the discussion over his comments grows.
