Freddie Kitchens: Odell Beckham missed 'a lot' in OTAs

As organized team activities wrap up in Cleveland, Freddie Kitchens expressed Thursday that he wished new Browns receiver Odell Beckham Jr. had been around more.

OBJ has been absent for most of Cleveland's nine-day voluntary OTAs -- as is his right under the Collective Bargaining Agreement -- but Kitchens said that the wideout missed out on a bunch.

Asked what his goals are for Beckham when he likely returns for the team's mandatory minicamp next Tuesday, Kitchens said, "I just want to see him."

OBJ's missed "a lot," Kitchens added. "The offense."

The first-year head coach had previously expressed lenience toward Beckham's skipping voluntary workouts.

"There's no problem with Odell not being here," Kitchens said earlier this month. "I'd rather him be here. He's not here. It's voluntary. That's what the word voluntary means. He can decide to come or he can't.

"But under no circumstance am I going to say that I'm pissed off at Odell for not being here. He'll be ready to play and ultimately that's the only thing I want, for him to be ready to play when we start kicking off in September and he will be -- I promise you."

Odds are Beckham will show up ready to rock and Rolls Royce next week and everything will be copacetic in Cleveland beforce camp concludes.

But it's hard to blame Kitchens, a rookie coach trying to implement his offense with a renovated roster, for wanting the Browns' most dangerous addition to be around from start to finish.

"The Cleveland Browns got a real crisis on their hands... 75 days since the trade, he's been in Cleveland for three days. The coach is pissed and now he's going public with it."

What a dumb statement.

Baker Mayfield is also running his mouth in a GQ article bashing the Giants for picking Daniel Jones.

There is an awful lot of talk coming out of Cleveland for team that has not done a damn thing yet.

It's so nice to have a quiet camp focused solely on the on-field work while all of the drama resides in places like Oakland, Cleveland, and Dallas.

It's so nice to have a quiet camp focused solely on the on-field work while all of the drama resides in places like Oakland, Cleveland, and Dallas.

I said last year that the drama that was thrust upon the Steelers and their fans would subside, but the effective changes caused by it would linger elsewhere.

In Dallas and San Diego, the Zeke and Gordon situations are being propelled by the fact that Bell sat out a year and the distraction attached to it.

In Cleveland, I still believe that OBJ was traded because the Giants saw what AB was doing and they decided to cut bait before the same thing happened there. They knew that they are not within a window to win soon, so a diva receiver brings no potential value. As much as people thought that New York made a bad trade, I loved it for them. OBJ is now proving to be someone else's headache.

Oakland - well, nothing needs to be said.

Jets - Bell goes and gets a smaller overall contract after sitting out a year, and is being coached by someone who supposedly didn't want him. That will boil over soon enough.

Pittsburgh - so quiet it's almost boring. Or at least it would be if the memory of last year wasn't still fresh.

You just committed the "San Diego Chargers" penalty.

This is not subject to coach's challenge or booth review.

Fifteen yard penalty. Automatic first down.

Amen to that!
