The Cleveland Browns are working with Odell Beckham Jr.'s representatives to negotiate an agreement on terms under which they would release the wide receiver, the team announced Friday.
The Browns are converting Beckham's base salary into signing bonus to lower his cap number in an attempt to save money, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Once the contract is finalized -- expected to be anytime in the next few days -- Beckham will be released. He can't be claimed on waivers until next week.
According to multiple sources, Cleveland coach Kevin Stefanski addressed the team before Wednesday's practice and informed players that Beckham would no longer be a Brown as the team prepares for Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
