The OBJ Watch finally ended on Thursday and it wasn't the outcome the Saints wanted or expected. After considering offers from several suitors, Odell Beckham Jr. elected to sign a one-year contract with the Los Angeles Rams, ending a whirlwind recruitment. The former Newman and LSU star considered the Saints, among others, after being released by the Cleveland Browns last week. As if the OBJ news wasn't bad enough, the Saints practiced Thursday for the second consecutive day without one of their best players because of an injury. Beat reporter Luke Johnson has the full injury report. When it rains, it pours, and the Saints had more bad news to report on Thursday, when they placed first-round draft pick, Payton Turner, on the injured reserve list.
