The Baltimore Ravens made headlines when they signed wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. to a one-year deal worth up to $18 million dollars. Many were focused on the on-field fit for Beckham in the team’s offense and what it would mean for quarterback Lamar Jackson, but one storyline that also arose was the star wide receiver’s scuffle with Baltimore cornerback Marlon Humphrey back in 2019.
Both Beckham and Humphrey are extremely talented players, and will have the ability to get reps against one another in practice to make each other better. Humphrey was asked about what it’s been like to go up against Beckham in practice, with the cornerback discussing his relationship with the star wide receiver and what’s ahead for the two.
“It’s been good. [I met] him [Odell Beckham Jr.] in the offseason, actually, at [professional boxer] Gervonta Davis’ fight. Meeting him then and then … Any time I meet a guy that just signed to our team and the first conversation you have is about a Super Bowl, is a really good thing to me. I know his mind is right. I’ve been talking to him as he’s been training up there with Saquon [Barkley] and everything. So, I know his mind is right, [and] I know, when we come back, we’re all going to be just ready to go [for] training camp [and] get the battles going [with] him and all the guys we’ve got. I’m just really excited to get some really good work in, in training camp, with some really elite receivers – him and along with the other guys that we’ve had here and the other guys we’ve signed. So, I’m really excited for that.”
