UPDATE 2
The Browns have confirmed Odell Beckham Jr. suffered a torn ACL during Sunday’s win over the Bengals, ending his season after just seven games.
Beckham had caught 23 passes for 319 yards and three touchdowns this season. Along with the remaining nine games he’ll miss, Beckham will miss a combined 36 games during the first seven years of his career. The 27-year-old All-Pro also has three years remaining on the five-year, $90 million deal signed in 2018.
UPDATE
The Browns have declared Beckham OUT for the remainder of the game.

As of this posting, the Browns have yet to complete a pass. It’s not going to get easier with Beckham out for the game.
Cleveland Browns receiver Odell Beckham Jr. injured his knee on the Browns’ first passing play on offense against the Cincinnati Bengals. His return is questionable.
#Browns WR Odell Beckham (knee) is questionable to return vs. the #Bengals. He was injured on Baker Mayfield’s INT.

Beckham was targeted on Cleveland’s first play from scrimmage, but Baker Mayfield’s pass was intercepted by Darius Phillips. While trying to stop Phillips’ return, Beckham injured his knee and had to leave the field. He went to the Browns’ locker room.
Cleveland replaced Beckham with rookie Donovan Peoples-Jones at receiver.
In four career games vs. the Bengals, Beckham has over 300 yards and three touchdowns. He had a great matchup in this game with Bengals’ cornerback William Jackson III out with a concussion, but it looks like he may not return to the field.
The Browns came into this game as slight favorites to win the game. If Beckham doesn’t return, it could swing the game into Cincinnati’s favor.
