No OBJ At Ravens OTAs?

Fans, coaches, and even players are anxious to see Beckham Jr. interact on the field and catch passes.

The Baltimore Ravens have upgraded their receivers room with a bang this offseason, regardless of if they know who will be throwing the ball or not this upcoming season.

One of those acquisitions is wideout Odell Beckham Jr.

No doubt fans, coaches, and even players are anxious to see Beckham Jr. interact on the field and catch passes. But the new pass catcher discussed upcoming OTAs at his introductory presser in the wake of his recent recovery from a torn ACL in the Super Bowl just over a year ago.

“That’s be a discussion with the training room, coaches, everybody,” Beckham said initially. “I’ve been in the situation before where this is made more important by this side of the room [the media] than your teammates. 

"If you’re at OTAs and you were a great guy and you get out onto the field during the season and you don’t perform, I don’t think your teammates are gonna be like, ‘Well, he was at OTAs and he was, you know, he was there,'” Beckham said. “It’s more about that guy that’s gonna come show up for you on Sundays and be able to produce.”

Beckham Jr. even addressed players who don't participate in OTAs but still play at a high level on Sundays.

“But there’s also being in a new group and being able to bond with those guys,” Beckham said. “I get the balance. So it’s something that we’ll all sit down and figure out, but I always deep down inside thought it was made more of a thing over that way than it really is with the guys that you share blood, sweat, and tears with and you’re with more hours than your family.”

For now, we don't know for sure if OBJ will be at OTAs, but if he is, there's probably a higher likelihood that a quarterback named Jackson is there too.
