49ers Not Interested In Trading For Odell Beckham Jr.

Mar 26, 2020 4:02 PM

The San Francisco 49ers are not interested in revisiting a trade scenario for Odell Beckham Jr.

The 49ers were interested in Beckham last offseason before he was traded by the New York Giants to the Cleveland Browns. Beckham had a disappointing first season with the Browns.

Jay Glazer was asked about the 49ers' interest this offseason in a mailbag column.

"Nope. No truth to that. Sorry, gang," wrote Glazer. "I know the 49ers loved him but they are trying to rebuild draft capital, not give up draft capital."
