Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Odell Beckham appeared to suffer a non-contact injury during the second quarter of the Super Bowl.

Beckham was trying to catch a Matthew Stafford pass when he crumpled to the field in significant pain. Beckham immediately grabbed at his left knee.

Beckham had to be helped off the field and was not putting much weight on the left leg as he departed. He was initially taken to the medical tent before being moved to the locker room.

The veteran receiver had been off to a great start in the game, and caught the first touchdown to put the Rams ahead 7-0.
