The Detroit Lions won’t be adding Odell Beckham Jr.

Cleveland Browns receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is expected to be waived on Monday, putting a significant talent on the waiver wire. With the Detroit Lions currently owning the top priority in the waiver wire, many have wondered if they would put in a claim, essentially awarding them Beckham for the remainder of the year.

But Lions head coach Dan Campbell shut down that possibility during his Monday afternoon Zoom conference. When asked if the team would be interested in adding Beckham, Campbell was short and concise.

“No,” Campbell said.

The Lions do have a big need at receiver.
