Odell Beckham Jr. off the injury report for Week 1 vs. Texans

Update, Sept. 8 — Despite picking up a late-week injury designation due to his ankle, Beckham Jr. was able to be a full practice participant on Friday. He avoids an injury designation heading into the weekend and should be good to go to make his return on Sunday.

The Baltimore Ravens have added wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. to the injury report with an ankle injury. He was limited in practice on Thursday, giving him one more day to try and log a full practice. Beckham Jr. recently said how excited he was to get back on the field with a new team after not playing the entirety of the 2022 season.

Fantasy football implications for Week 1

Beckham Jr. doesn’t have fantasy value this week unless you are in deeper leagues. Baltimore is known for being a run-heavy offense with quarterback Lamar Jackson’s mobility. The Ravens overhauled their pass-catchers this offseason, adding in the veteran Beckham. He figures to fight for targets alongside Mark Andrews, Rashod Bateman, Nelson Agholor, JK Dobbins and the rookie Zay Flowers.

Beckham will be playing in his ninth career season. He last took the field with the Los Angeles Rams when they won the Super Bowl in 2022. Beckham rehabbed his torn ACL last season before visiting teams around the league. He didn’t end up signing anywhere but joined the Ravens as a free agent this offseason. Beckham begins the year with 7,367 career receiving yards, 57 career touchdowns and arguably still the greatest catch in NFL history.
