Ravens Offered Contract to Odell Beckham Jr., per Report
As Odell Beckham Jr. remains on the free agent market for the second straight season, it appears that a couple of teams have emerged as possible landing spots. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Ravens have made an offer to Beckham, while the Jets also remain in the mix for the wide receiver.
“The Baltimore Ravens have met with Odell Beckham Jr., they’ve presented him their own offer,” Schefter said on ESPN. “It certainly sounds like it’s the Jets, it’s the Ravens, maybe the Rams still would have interest but those, at this point in time, would be the obvious landing spots.”
Beckham’s free agency, which started when his contract with the Rams expired in the 2022 offseason, has lasted a full year as the wide receiver has rehabbed from a torn ACL. Over the season, he met with the Cowboys, Giants and Bills, but it seems the Jets and Ravens are now at the forefront of the negotiations.
Still, Beckham hasn’t signed anywhere because no team has met his asking price. As a result, Beckham reportedly lowered his asking price after no team was willing to give him around $20 million.
Baltimore and New York are notable in that those two teams are currently at the center of the two biggest quarterback stories in the league. The Jets are still trying to work out a trade for Aaron Rodgers, while the Ravens gave Lamar Jackson the non-exclusive tag before free agency.
