Odell Beckham: NFL Players ‘Should Make More Money’

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Odell Beckham Jr.’s young career has gotten off to a brilliant start.

After being selected by the Giants with the 12th overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, Beckham proceeded to catch 91 passes for 1,305 yards and 12 touchdowns in his first season. Oh, and he accomplished all that in just 12 games.

The 22-year-old was rewarded with AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year honors and a Pro Bowl selection, and he’ll be on the cover of “Madden NFL 16.”

Despite all that, the all-world receiver has a gripe. He feels that NFL players aren’t paid enough.
