The National Football League (NFL) has 29.3 million followers on Instagram, although this figure is much lower than the NBA’s over 85.7 million followers. However, the NFL is still home to some of the most influential figures in sports. NFL players can use their social media platforms to connect with fans and promote their preferred products. Therefore, having more followers on social media equates to having more influence when evaluating a player’s overall impact.
Odell Beckham Jr. has one of the largest followings among current NFL stars, with about 17.7 million fans on Instagram. The wide receiver for the Baltimore Ravens, often referred to as OBJ, mostly posts about football, but occasionally shares selfies and red-carpet photos as well. Odell is known for his outgoing personality, both on and off the field, as well as his flashy style and impressive speed. Let’s take a look at the most-followed NFL players by team on Instagram.
