File another Wisconsin football moment under “famous NFL player chimes in with praise for a current Badger.” The most recent, famously, was the night Patrick Mahomes and others took to Twitter to react to Graham Mertz’s sensational five-touchdown performance against Illinois in 2020.
This time it came from Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., the man who made the one-handed catch famous.

Wisconsin tweeted a video of quarterback Tanner Mordecai finding wide receiver Chimere Dike towards the sideline yesterday. Dike brought in the pass one-handed, with cornerback Alexander Smith draped all over his left side.
Beckham approved of the effort:
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

Dike leads a Wisconsin wide receiver room that sets up to be the best, or at least the deepest, in program history. Tanner Mordecai should have no trouble finding options to throw to this fall.
