INGLEWOOD — Rams wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. left with a non-contact knee injury after a fast start Sunday in Super Bowl LVI.

Beckham grabbed his left knee as Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford directed a pass his way in the second quarter against the Cincinnati Bengals. Beckham walked off the SoFi Stadium field, but needed assistance from trainers to enter the blue medical tent.

Beckham did manage to head to the locker room under his own power. He was downgraded to out in the third quarter and exited with two receptions for 52 yards and one touchdown.

The Rams’ star wideout scored the Super Bowl’s first points with a 17-yard touchdown grab with 6:22 in the first quarter. Beckham also had a 35-yard reception.

On the play when Beckham was injured, Stafford’s pass hit him while he grabbed his knee with 3:54 remaining in the second quarter. Bengals defenders were a few yards away from Beckham as the injury occurred.

Beckham later joined his teammates on the sideline and wore a white sleeve on his left leg.
