MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — The Miami Dolphins activated Odell Beckham Jr. from the physically unable to perform list on Saturday, clearing the way for the veteran receiver to make his season debut Sunday at New England.
Beckham signed a one-year contract with the Dolphins in May but missed the first four games of the season after having what he described as a “small cleanup” in his knee in the offseason.
He said going on the PUP list wasn't what he wanted, but he ultimately made the best decision for the team.
“For me it was a selfless act," Beckham said, “because if I’m not on the PUP list, I’m taking up a roster spot, which means I’m taking someone else’s job and I’m not doing anything. It’s not really a good feeling to have.”
