Odell Beckham Jr. to New England? That’s what ESPN’s Louis Riddick recently envisioned.

On Wednesday, the “Monday Night Football” commentator tweeted a mock-up image of what the former Browns receiver would like in a Patriots uniform, one day after Beckham cleared waivers to become a free agent.

Captioning the post with the thinking face emoji, Riddick’s tweet immediately launched a flurry of responses as fans continue to speculate where the mercurial wide receiver will land next.

“You’re supposed to text me first when you have a big scoop like this LR…,” Courtney Fallon tweeted to Riddick

, who then replied, “Just thinking about the possibility….”

Another user then responded to Riddick, “New England tell you put this out lol?” while one user replied, “Bro you did not.”

Elsewhere, some NFL fans put their Photoshop skills to the test, showcasing what Beckham could look like in a Chiefs jersey, as well as a Raiders uniform.

As of Thursday morning, Beckham’s future NFL destination has not yet been revealed. The Patriots reportedly have the three-time Pro Bowler on their radar, with ESPN’s Dianna Russini noting Wednesday that Beckham is zeroing on “on the Chiefs, Packers and Saints.”

Several Patriots players, including rookie quarterback Mac Jones, have praised Beckham in recent days, calling the wide receiver “a great player.”

Beckham forced himself off of the Browns last week after a two-and-a-half-year union in Cleveland. He was originally drafted by the Giants in 2014 before he was traded to the Browns in early 2019.
