Odell Beckham Jr. Says NFL Should Cancel Season, Owners 'Don't See Us as Human'

Odell Beckham Jr. does not think the NFL should hold the 2020 season amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Before players reported to training camp, Beckham spoke to the Wall Street Journal's Lane Florsheim and shared why he thinks the league is incentivized to have the season.

"We're not ready for football season. So why are we trying to push forward? It's obviously for their money. And that bothers me because there's always been this—and I hate saying it like that—but the owners' [attitude is], 'Oh we own you guys,' and just kind of that unfairness going on that they don't see us as human," he said.
