Odell Beckham Jr. will make $3 million in 2024, though his contract incentives could push him closer to $8 million.
He will most certainly not make more than that off the field after his recent legal victory.
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. took to his Instagram on Thursday in a good mood, stating ‘justice was served’ in his lawsuit against Nike.
Odell Beckham Jr. and the apparel giant were not awarded damages after filing breach-of-contract lawsuits against each other.
The New York Post‘s Michael Blinn reported Friday that a Multnomah County (Oregon) Circuit Court jury didn’t award Beckham Jr. any money in damages for his lawsuit against Nike after he previously sued the sports apparel company for $20 million in 2022.
The company also countersued him, but the jury didn’t award Nike any damages. The apparel brand claimed at the time that Odell Beckham Jr. breached his contract by customizing his gloves in ways that covered the Nike logo and by sharing details of the contract.
Neither side was in breach of contract, yet both went on a victory lap online.
Beckham wrote on his Instagram that “justice was served,” while the apparel brand stated the company “complied with its commitments.”
