The Dallas Cowboys have been linked to wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr seemingly all season long, but after months of free agency speculation, a recent report stated that the Cowboys have concerns about Beckham's injury recovery from his previously torn ACL, per a league source via Ed Werder.

“The Cowboys have concerns after Odell Beckham Jr’s physical that his recovery from torn left ACL in Super Bowl has not progressed enough to ensure he would play before mid-January and possibility exists signing him would have no benefit until 2023 season,” Werder wrote on Twitter.

Adding to Dallas' concern about Odell Beckham Jr's injury recover didn't participate in a workout for the team on Tuesday, per Dallas Morning News' Calvin Watkins.

“A person with knowledge of the OBJ talks said there was a low expectation he would workout but when he didn’t it just confirmed to the club he’s not ready to play.”

This doesn't rule the Cowboys out of the Beckham sweepstakes, but it will force them to proceed with caution.

Jerry Jones previously discussed the Cowboys meeting with Beckham.

“We had pretty extensive meetings (yesterday). We spent quite a bit of time together. I enjoyed every minute of it. We’ll get back together today and see where we go from here. A lot of variables. It has to fit for both parties,” Jones told 105.3 the FAN.

Odell Beckham Jr recently hinted that the Cowboys were potentially on the verge of signing him. But Dallas has a difficult decision to make. If they sign him now, there is a possibility that he will not offer a true impact until next year. But there is also a  chance that Beckham becomes an important piece to the puzzle this season.

The uncertainty involved in the situation places Dallas in a difficult position. We will continue to provide updates on Beckham's free agency, and any further concerns about his injury recovery timeline.
