Odell Beckham Jr. Set to Resume Practice with Miami Dolphins

Beckham’s Anticipated Return after Long Absence

Odell Beckham Jr., who joined the Miami Dolphins earlier this year in May, has been sidelined due to an undisclosed injury. He marked the beginning of the regular season on the physically unable to perform list. However, according to coach Mike McDaniel’s recent announcement, Beckham is scheduled for training with the team this week – a first since his signing.

The renowned wide receiver will need to secure a position on the active roster within three weeks, or else he will be reassigned to the inactive list for the rest of the season.

Beckham’s Contract and Injury Recovery

Beckham inked a one-year deal with the Dolphins, valued at $3 million, with additional incentives that could increase the contract’s worth to $8.25 million. However, the acclaimed player has yet to practice with the team due to his injury recovery process.

The star athlete is eligible to return to action as early as this week’s game against the New England Patriots. However, the final decision will be reserved until later in the week.

Dolphins’ Struggling Offense Awaits Beckham’s Return

With the Dolphins’ offense ranked 26th and struggling to score – holding the record for the worst-scoring team in the league with an average of 11.3 points per game, Beckham’s return could be the spark it desperately needs.

Quarterback Situation Adds to Miami’s Woes

The Dolphins’ offensive struggles are further compounded by their unstable quarterback situation. Tyler Huntley is expected to start for the second week in a row, replacing the injured duo, Skylar Thompson and Tua Tagovailoa.

In the recent 31-12 loss to the Tennessee Titans, Huntley completed 14 of 22 passes for 96 yards and scored the team’s only touchdown of the night. Despite the disappointing outcome, McDaniel expressed optimism, citing aspects of the loss that present opportunities for improvement.

Impact of Jaelan Phillips’ Injury on Dolphins’ Pass Rush

The Dolphins might face another setback this week as pass rusher Jaelan Phillips suffered a knee injury in Monday’s game. With his return uncertain, the Dolphins will likely depend on veteran Emmanuel Ogbah and rookie Chop Robinson to strengthen their pass rush.

Beckham’s anticipated return offers a much-needed boost to the struggling Miami Dolphins. However, only time will tell if this will be the turning point for the team’s offense.
