NFL: 5 teams that should add Odell Beckham Jr. during the season

Odell Beckham Jr. Potential Destination #5: Kansas City Chiefs
The Kansas City Chiefs are in a similar boat to the Green Bay Packers at the wide receiver position, but with a bit better of an outlook. After losing Tyreek Hill, the Chiefs are set to rely on a hodgepodge of talent morphed into a wide receiver room.
JuJu Smith-Schuster was the most intriguing signing for the Chiefs. Still only 25 years old, Smith-Schuster showed flashes in Pittsburgh his first two seasons but fizzled out. He’s surpassed 800 receiving yards just once over the last three years. There could still be plenty of potential here, but that’s a big if for the Chiefs.
They also brought in Marquez Valdes-Scantling. Valdes-Scantling never really caught on in Green Bay. The former fifth-round pick has never reached 700 receiving yards in a season. There’s also Mecole Hardman who has fallen short of expectations.
The Chiefs drafted Skyy Moore out of Western Michigan in the second round, but the fact of the matter is there is a lot of risk and very little certainty at the wide receiver position in Kansas City. If things are not going well out wide for the Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes is going to want an upgrade. A way to do that would be bringing in Odell Beckham Jr.
