Odell Beckham Jr. is off to a fast start in his second season with the Cleveland Browns, a sight everyone in The Land is happy to see since the star didn't have that great of a campaign in 2019 after the Browns acquired him from the New York Giants.

The Browns, who are 3-1 on the season after defeating the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4, are expecting Beckham Jr. to continue his torrid play moving forward since he's finally healthy and has a good relationship with Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski.

“Last year he was dealing with a major [injury] that obviously he had to have surgery,” Browns WR Jarvis Landry said about why Odell Beckham Jr. is playing well in Year 2 in Cleveland, via The Akron Beacon Journal.

“Coming into a new system, new team, all of these things and I think that that weighs on you, weighs on anybody, and he has handled it well. This year I think his body has kind of calmed his mind down from all the things that he had going on that he can go out here and perform at a high level.”

Another reason Beckham may be flourishing is the relationship he’s developed with Browns coach Kevin Stefanski.

“Being able to understand the people that you’re here giving your day to, it goes a long way,” Beckham said. “There’s a great line of communication there. I feel like it’s always an open door, we can say things and there’s never any hard feelings because we know where each other’s heart’s at. We want to work and we want to be great. I can definitely say that’s a great relationship and looking forward to keeping that going.”

In 2019, Beckham Jr. had only 74 receptions for 1,035 yards and just four touchdowns. The Pro Bowl wideout already has four receiving touchdowns this season with the Browns.

OBJ also had a spectacular rushing touchdown against the Cowboys to put the game away after Dallas made a comeback in the fourth quarter.

Along with his four receiving touchdowns, Beckham Jr. has caught 16 balls from Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield for a grand total of 236 yards. It appears OBJ is having fun playing football again.
