Odell Beckham Jr lands a contract with a minor league baseball team
Odell Beckham Jr of the New York Giants has a ton of hype lately, and after an amazing rookie campaign it is safe to say he is a talented player. The Madden Cover winner is not just great at football he is a freak athlete that can do it all. Now the former LSU Tiger received another job offer, this time from the Rockland Boulders of the Can-Am league of Minor League Baseball.
“It’s apparent that Odell is a very gifted athlete regardless of his sport. We think that getting experience pitching to professional hitters will give him the opportunity to follow in the footsteps of Deion Sanders and Bo Jackson”, said Boulders General Manager Shawn Reilly, via Lohud.com. “As we are the New York area’s only defending professional championship team, he will have the opportunity to learn in a first-class environment while still in close proximity to MetLife Stadium.”
I am not sure what to think of this, but hey you never know? Bo and Deion did it?
