Odell Beckham Jr's NFL career got off to a fast start, living up to the hype when he was drafted out of LSU, winning the 2014 Offensive Rookie of the Year award. He then went on to win Super Bowl LVI with the New York Giants and has been a two-time second-team NFL All-Pro selection and a three-time Pro Bowler. He spent last season with the Miami Dolphins and has also suited up for the Baltimore Ravens, Los Angeles Rams, and Cleveland Browns during his career.

OBJ's soccer connections run deep, with him being a part owner of Mexican Club Necaxa and being a long time Bayern Munich fan. With that, it's only fitting that he'll be attending the final at Allianz Arena. OBJ also played soccer when he was younger and has said that he was invited to join the U.S. National team program around 13. Someone who has brought the entertainment with flashy catches and celebrations during his NFL career, OBJ, will certainly bring moments worth watching.
