Odell Beckham Jr. will look to resurrect his NFL career this fall when he will suit up for the Baltimore Ravens.
He is coming off a torn ACL he suffered in the Super Bowl 15 months ago as a member of the Los Angeles Rams, which was the second such injury he had suffered in a span of fewer than 18 months.
With some downtime before OTAs and training camp, Beckham will play a central role in the Preakness Stakes on Saturday.

Beckham started his NFL career in 2014 as a member of the New York Giants, and right away, he was a force to be reckoned with.
In each of his first three seasons, he tallied over 1,300 receiving yards and was named to the Pro Bowl.
But injuries have slowed him down since, and everyone is wondering if he will regain any of his old form in 2023.
Beckham received a lucrative one-year deal to join the Ravens that is loaded with statistical incentives.
If he is spry once again, he will give quarterback Lamar Jackson, the new $260 million man, a reliable wide receiver for the first time in his career.
Baltimore has won just one playoff game since Jackson became their full-time starter in 2019, and they’re hoping to add to that tally next winter.
Beckham is 30 years of age, which isn’t the least bit old, and while he may not be able to have another 1,300-yard season, perhaps he will do very well and help the Ravens surprise some observers.
