Odell Beckham Jr. says he accepts 6-game PED suspension

Odell Beckham Jr. has accepted a six-game suspension for violating the NFL’s performance-enhancing drug policy, delaying the star wide receiver’s comeback attempt.

Beckham announced his impending suspension during an appearance on “The Pivot Podcast,” which published the interview on Tuesday.

Beckham, who is currently a free agent, said he failed a PED test last season while a member of the Miami Dolphins.

Beckham insisted he did not knowingly consume any banned substances. The three-time Pro Bowler added that when he asked the league what PED he tested positive for, he was told “your testosterone levels are too high.”

The suspension will appear Tuesday on the NFL’s official transaction feed, which will start the six-week clock before Beckham is eligible to play.

Beckham, who will be 33 when the suspension ends, reiterated that he wants to return to the NFL this season. He identified during his appearance that he would be interested in joining four specific teams: the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Kansas City Chiefs and two of his former teams, the Los Angeles Rams and the New York Giants.

Beckham was released by the Dolphins last December after struggling to make an impact through nine games, during which he had nine catches for 55 yards.
