It has been a long time since the 32-year-old was ever productive in the league.
His last 1,000-yard season came back in 2019 when he was a member of the Cleveland Browns.
That also happened to be the last season in which he caught more than 44 passes in a given season.
Through the first six seasons of his career, Beckham appeared to be on the track for greatness as he recorded 1,000+ receiving yards in five of those first six years.
He also recorded 288 catches across his first three seasons with the New York Giants.
But now, the former Super Bowl champion will look for his fifth different team in four years after catching just nine passes for 55 yards for Miami across nine games this year.
It will be very interesting to see if he joins a contending team needing some veteran help at the wide receiver position.
Perhaps a team like the Washington Commanders or Pittsburgh Steelers could look into adding the former first-round pick to their wide receiver corps just ahead of the stretch run.
