Imagine minding your own business and suddenly seeing a report claiming you just announced your retirement from the NFL. That’s exactly what happened to Odell Beckham Jr. on Tuesday (August 13).
The wide receiver was caught off guard when he saw a tweet from Adam Schelfer reporting that he was retiring.
Adam tweeted:
After 10 seasons in the NFL, Odell Beckham Jr. has decided to retire. Beckham Jr. played for the Giants, Browns, Rams, Ravens, and Dolphins. He announced Tuesday.
Schelfer even added a sentimental touch by including a photo of Odell and his son, Zydn.
Odell responded to the tweet writing:
LOL WTF… when was that announced and by who? That’s funny , appreciate the concerns but this Shxt ain’t over yet.
OBJ added, “Not done yet… thanks for hr concerns and have a blessed day.”
The NFL star took it in stride, writing, “😭learn somethin new everyday?”
As for those making jokes, Odell issued this PSA:
No seriously. Plz stop reading everything on the internet, and stop texting me happy retirement b4 u piss me off 😭😭😭
That will get no response.
I promise u the day I’m done I will let u kno. Again if u text me happy retirement im just gon have to block u 😭😭. Thanks
