And now we know why he chose LA. I doubt Green Bay gave him this...
Why did Beckham choose the Rams over the Packers? For starters, Green Bay offered him less money. Green Bay offered him a veteran's minimum salary. In Los Angeles, Beckham signed a deal worth up to $4.25 million with team-based incentives, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The deal allows Beckham to recoup the $3 million he lost when he parted ways with the Cleveland Browns.
Along with the strong financial commitment, the Rams also made a personal push to land Beckham. Several Rams players spoke with him over the phone before Beckham made his decision. Among those players were Rams receiver Robert Woods, who said that he spoke to Beckham before the start of Thursday's practice.
"Jalen (Ramsey) got him on the line," Woods said, via the Rams' team website. "Was able to talk to him, exchanged numbers, talked to him again, and I was heading out to practice, the news broke. So, short process."
Woods said that group phone call was intended to help Beckham "feel comfortable and confident to come join our team and our receiver room, join what we have going on." The message was clearly felt by Beckham, who later told CBS Sports HQ's Josina Anderson that he is very much at peace with his decision.
"I'm feeling the love from them," Beckham said. "My heart feels good."
