NFL Star Odell Beckham Jr. Paid A Classy Tribute To Kobe Bryant In The LA Rams Win
Kobe Bryant was one of the most influential figures in the world of sports, not just in basketball, but also in the city of Los Angeles. Bryant became synonymous with LA during his 20-year long NBA career, a Laker for life. Kobe brought 5 championships to the city, including the legendary three-peat alongside Shaquille O’Neal and Phil Jackson.
While Los Angeles is often considered a Laker town, they do currently have a pretty good NFL team in the Los Angeles Rams. The franchise went to the Super Bowl in 2019 and has secured yet another spot in this year’s Super Bowl after becoming the NFC Champions with a win over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night.
Huge contributions in key moments were made by newly acquired star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., who paid tribute to Kobe Bryant during the victory. Odell showed up to warm-ups in snakeskin cleats that were inspired by Kobe. The Rams went on to showcase the Mamba Mentality, coming back from a 10-point deficit in the second half to clinch the championship and a Super Bowl berth.
