Odell Beckham Jr. seems to be enjoying himself in his new digs with the Cleveland Browns.
The superstar wide receiver had a tumultuous ending to his tenure with the New York Giants to say the least, with the G-Men opting to trade Beckham to the Browns earlier in the offseason.
Now, Beckham has been paired up with a litany of playmakers, including LSU teammate Jarvis Landry and quarterback Baker Mayfield.
And it doesn’t seem like he is going to miss Eli Manning. The wideout called catching passes from Mayfield “completely different.”
“I have to get adjusted to his speed because he’s got an arm,” Beckham told reporters, via CBS Sports. “He’s throwing that ball hard. Just catching him from the first day, it was like: ‘Wow, this is completely different.’ ”

Shade: Thrown.
Manning finds himself hanging on for dear life as the No. 1 signal caller for Big Blue, with newly drafted Daniel Jones breathing down his neck. And it’s safe to say Beckham is happy he no longer is in the middle of that mess.
