By signing the former Cleveland Browns wide receiver, the Baltimore Ravens are perhaps offering an olive branch to Lamar Jackson by bringing in Odell Beckham Jr. And it turns out, the signing of Beckham Jr. is a rather expensive olive branch.
According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Ravens backed up the Brinks truck for Beckham Jr., giving him $15 million in guaranteed money. The breakdown of the contract includes a $1.165 million base salary, a $13.835 million signing bonus, and an extra $3 million in reachable incentives.
They got a new offensive coordinator, and now a new wide receiver. The question remains: can the Ravens mend fences with their quarterback?
