On Saturday, Beckham and Kevin signed the documents.

The Browns will formally release Beckham on Monday once the two parties have signed a settlement agreement, according to a person with knowledge of the matter who confirmed an NFL Network story.

At 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Beckham will be waived, allowing another team to claim him off waivers. However, if he clears waivers without being claimed, he’ll be free to sign with any team.

In a pivotal AFC North match, the Browns (4-4) will travel to Cincinnati to play the Bengals (5-3), but Beckham has already played his final game with Cleveland.

Hall of Fame coach comments on the saga of OBJ:The blowback from Odell Beckham Jr. won’t stop Kevin Stefanski’s long-term goals, according to Bill Cowher.

Odell Beckham Jr.’s Cleveland career is coming to an end, and Kevin Stefanski laments the unfortunate way it all went down.

Before OBJ’s attorneys and Browns General Manager Andrew Berry adjusted the player’s contract this week, OBJ was guaranteed $8 million for the remainder of this year, and his contract was set to expire in 2023. Of the $15.75 million he was supposed to make in 2021, $8 million was what was left over.

However, the new agreement altered the compensation for this year and eliminated the last two seasons of OBJ’s contract.

The release of Odell Beckham Jr. “truly isn’t about the video,” but irritation over time, according to Browns general manager Andrew Berry.

A team would owe Beckham $7.25 million this season, and he would be eligible to become a free agent in March if it were to claim him off waivers on Tuesday.

The Browns would owe him $4.25 million if he were to pass through waivers unclaimed on Tuesday, saving $3 million. After that, OBJ may choose to join any team.

Beckham consented not to pursue termination compensation as part of the new agreement.

The teammates of Odell Beckham Jr. urged him to stay:I have no idea the whole story and never will,” Myles Garrett states following his conversation with OBJ.

A source stated that Beckham had asked for a trade several times this past offseason and again during Sunday’s 15-10 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. However, the Browns were unable to locate a suitable home for him due to his contract.

Put another way, it would be quite improbable for a team to take Beckham off waivers given that it would also be inheriting a salary of $7.25 million for the second half of this season.
