Role Model Odell Beckham Jr is not just a superstar athlete. He’s a style sensation, a trainer fanatic and a family man.
Known to friends and fans as OBJ, he is an American football wide receiver for the Cleveland Browns of the National Football League (NFL). Born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Beckham was drafted by the New York Giants in 2014. In 2016, he became the fastest player in NFL history to reach both 200 career receptions and 4,000 career receiving yards.
But in this episode we aren’t talking about the game. Instead, he tells Leomie about his first love (soccer) and the alternate universe where he’s kicking a ball and scoring goals. They also discuss over coming the ‘what ifs’ in life and how music helps him envision game play. His determination, sacrifice and drive make Odell the definition of a Role Model.
