Even prior to the start of the 2017 season, New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. made it clear he wanted a new contract. "It’s like the elephant in the room, and you don’t want to talk about it,” Beckham said back in July. It's a span that included Beckham Jr. putting up 288 receptions for over 4,100 yards and 35 touchdowns. Equally notable, Beckham has been seen as an immature malcontent during his brief stint with New York. This came at about the same time Beckham Jr. himself noted that today's NFL stars are underpaid.
