Fans of the Baltimore Ravens are anticipating what new wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. may do to their offensive plan. Before signing a one-year, $15 million contract with them in April, they might not have known that Beckham was almost ready to retire.
Beckham was upset after sustaining the second ACL injury of his professional career during Super Bowl 56. His demanding recuperation process in 2020 while playing for the Cleveland Browns and his crucial contribution to the Los Angeles Rams’ championship triumph was taxing on him. It’s easy to understand why Beckham thought about putting up his cleats following his recent success, especially considering the lasting effects of an ankle injury he suffered while playing for the New York Giants.
Odell Beckham Jr. said to The Athletic that he had been devastated by the setback.
“I’ve gone through a lot in the past few years, and I felt it was the end. The idea of climbing back on the saddle and repeating the same struggle was daunting.”
Even the most demanding athletes may experience mental fatigue throughout the ACL damage recovery procedure. It’s terrifying to have to go through it twice, especially at 29. Throughout his nine-year NFL career, Beckham has gone from being a contentious figure to a Super Bowl hero, even scoring a touchdown in the game’s opening period. During a storm of rumors, Beckham, now 30 years old, reports to the Ravens‘ training camp.
If Beckham can survive, the demands of an entire season will be on everyone’s mind. But despite his current physical state, the receiver is still confident in his capacity to rewrite the narrative of his NFL career once again. If his time in Baltimore succeeds, it might give Beckham a fitting cap to a job that was initially unpredictable but eventually characterized by victory.
