The Baltimore Ravens and wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. agreed on a one-year deal worth up to $18 million including $15 million guaranteed. Beckham joins a Baltimore team with its quarterback situation up in the air, with Lamar Jackson asking to be traded.
The 30-year-old Beckham did not play last season following ACL surgery. Beckham made the Pro Bowl his first three seasons, and has five 1,000-yard seasons. In his most recent season on the field in 2021, he caught 44 passes for 537 yards and five touchdowns in 14 games for the Browns and Rams. He scored a touchdown in Los Angeles’ Super Bowl victory that season, although he also injured his knee in that game. Since debuting with the New York Giants in 2014, he has 531 catches for 7,367 yards and 56 TDs.
Beckham is one of three players in NFL history (along with Justin Jefferson and Michael Thomas ) to reach 80 receptions and 1,000 yards receiving in each of his first three seasons.
