The Chiefs are known to want to improve their receiving unit this offseason, given Patrick Mahomes and his offense struggled for large parts of last year before eventually clicking at the right time to win the Super Bowl in Las Vegas.
Beckham Jr. and Kardashian added to growing speculation about their romance last week by heading to Chateau Marmont for Jay-Z and Beyonce’s post-Oscars party.
It remains to be seen whether they would watch games together in a suite at Arrowhead Stadium next season but Swift has been a regular presence at Kelce’s games since going public with their relationship last year.
A source has exclusively told DailyMail.com: ‘Odell will sign with someone in the next few days.
‘Though he would like to get a multi-year deal, some teams are apprehensive because he is very injury-prone and he might have to consider a two-year deal instead.
‘But NFL teams know that while Odell is still a great player, they could get someone younger and cheaper. We will see in the next few days who is playing chess and who is playing checkers.
‘He wants to join Kansas City but taking the best contract with the most money is Odell’s current thought process. Everyone wants to win, but money wins overall.’
The source continued: ‘Odell is going to have to dig in his heels a little longer than he originally expected as his ego outweighs the demand for his services.
‘He would love to sign with a team by this weekend but as originally thought to be the case, there are now a few bumps in the road as teams are spending money on other needs over an aging wide receiver with ACL issues and who is asking for too much money.
‘It is looking like this is turning out to be more of a soap opera than originally expected. Odell is getting frustrated with the process.’
Beckham Jr. landed in Baltimore last year after returning from an ACL injury, which he sustained during the LA Rams’ Super Bowl victory in 2022 and ruled him out of the entire 2022-23 season.
