Although injuries have kept Odell Beckham Jr. from playing at the elite status that he once did, the veteran wide receiver is finding his place in the Ravens’ offense.
In Baltimore's Week 10 matchup against the Browns on Sunday, Lamar Jackson delivered a perfect strike on a crossing route to Beckham, resulting in a 40-yard touchdown reception and an iconic Tyreek Hill peace sign as he ran past the Browns’ secondary on his way to the end zone.
However, after Beckham’s touchdown on his first catch in Sunday’s game, the Dolphins All-Pro wide receiver reminded Beckham that the NFL will fine players for even the smallest celebrations.
“Yeah they fining people for that buddy 😑,” Hill wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter).

Hill is no stranger to fines from the league, especially those with a peace sign. The NFL fined the seven-time Pro Bowler $10,000 for throwing his signature peace sign during a 64-yard touchdown reception in the fourth quarter of the Chiefs’ game against the Bills in the 2022 AFC divisional playoff game.
While it is not certain if Beckham will be fined, there is a possibility that it will happen, considering the NFL’s emphasis on taunting. Beckham finished the game with the lone touchdown reception in the Ravens’ 33-31 loss to the Browns.
