Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. will likely make his return to football Sunday after suffering a torn ACL on October 25th. The former Pro-Bowler will join an injury-depleted Browns receiving corps as the team looks to collect its second win of the season against the 1-1 Chicago Bears.

Beckham was a full participant in practice this week after partaking sparingly in training camp and the first two weeks of practice. Head coach Kevin Stefanski reported that Beckham had a “good week” and operated without limitations.
Beckham returns to a Cleveland wide receiving corps desperately needing his talents, as the group is without Jarvis Landry‘s services after the team placed the wide receiver on injured reserve.

FANTASY FOOTBALL IMPACT
Beckham is a high-risk, high-reward play this week: The Browns need him after losing Landry. The Bears have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to wide receivers, so the opportunity is there for Beckham to have a big game in his first action back. He's a WR4 who had a higher upside but a lower floor than those ranked near him. Click here to find PFF's WR/CB matchup chart.
