Odell Beckham Jr. is on his way to the Super Bowl, and some people in Cleveland are not happy about it.
Earlier this season, Beckham forced his way out of Cleveland to land on the Rams team after he felt he was being misused on the Browns.
On Sunday, Beckham had 9 receptions for 113 yards to help the Rams beat the Niners in the NFC championship game.

Despite Beckham’s big game, some Cleveland area sportswriters took shots at OBJ for “quitting” on the Browns.
What OBJ did to orchestrate his way out of Cleveland is a horrible precedent. The media will fawn over him the next 2 weeks but I won't. Nothing to feel good about what he did, which they will ignore. Don't get how former #Browns teammates can be happy for a dude who quit on them

As for the whole #Browns reputation being damaged by OBJ’s piss poor attitude here thing, should be the exact opposite. He owes Andrew Berry for doing him a solid. And every player & agent should respect how Berry made this possible when he was under no obligation to do so.

And whoever said quitters never prosper never met Odell

You’re right Dre. Unfortunately. But if every receiver who has a bad QB wants out, half the league is going to be looking for new receivers. Jarvis wasn’t happy but he played his ass off every snap. I’ll take that guy every time

After beating the Niners, Odell had a message for all the haters who left him for dead in Cleveland.
"I TOLD YOU! I TOLD YOU!"
Odell gets emotional after helping the Rams advance to the Super Bowl 🥺
