Ravens Training Camp: WR OBJ 'Looked Great' in First Stadium Practice

Baltimore Ravens receiver Odell Beckham Jr. looked right at home in his first trip to M&T Bank Stadium.
In this story:

The Baltimore Ravens held training camp practice at M&T Bank Stadium on Saturday and receiver Odell Beckham Jr. was the star of the show. 

The last time Beckham played a game in the Ravens' home stadium was in 2021 when he was a member of the Los Angeles Rams. Beckham hauled in five catches for 39 receiving yards and one touchdown versus Baltimore

Since the 2021-22 NFL season, however, Beckham has faced an uphill climb getting back on the gridiron. The veteran wideout sat out the entire 2022 season after re-injuring an ACL that ended his day early during Super Bowl LVI.

Now signed through the 2023 season with Baltimore, Beckham is back in practice and is reportedly facing "no limitations" one week into training camp. Beckham looked like his old self in his first appearance at M&T Bank Stadium as a Raven, and coach John Harbaugh expressed great confidence in the receiver after practice.

"I think Odell has got a really good plan," Harbaugh told BaltimoreRavens.com. "He had a nice day today. He looks a little better every day. He looked great out there. I expect nothing but classic Odell Beckham Jr. He's a hard worker. He's very conscientious about what he does, so I have no concerns about that at all."

Beckham turned heads on Saturday when he got behind defensive backs Marlon Humphrey and Kyle Hamilton to reel in a 20-yard reception for a touchdown. The play was negated due to an offensive holding call, but the crowd still appreciated the show. 

The three-time Pro Bowler also made a diving catch on the sidelines showing off his incredible hands and body control. The snag even garnered a high-five from Baltimore cornerback Rock Ya-Sin, who was defending Beckham on the play.

The show put on by Beckham should be a sign of good things to come for Baltimore fans.
