The Washington Commanders ultimately defeated the Baltimore Ravens following a last-second field goal, despite the Baltimore Ravens’ best efforts to win their 25th consecutive preseason game. During a sideline interview after the game, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson expressed his appreciation for Odell Beckham Jr. and his other offensive weapons.
According to ESPN Ravens reporter Jamison Hensley, when Jackson was questioned by ESPN’s Lisa Salters about how Odell was looking in the preseason, he informed the crowd with a smile about the excellent caliber of play he had witnessed from OBJ.
“Odell appears to be the familiar Odell. In the third quarter, Jackson referred to Salters as “the original Odell from the Giants, the Super Bowl winning Odell.”Since the Super Bowl two years ago, when he was a member of the Los Angeles Rams, Beckham Jr. has not participated in an NFL game. In the winning drive, he scored a touchdown before tearing his ACL. He missed the 2022 season while he recovered from the injury and looked for a team to sign with. The remainder of the receiving group, particularly first-round draft choice Zay Flowers, was also mentioned by his new quarterback.
Jackson said, “And then we got the new addition Zay, he looks phenomenal as well.”
The rookie weapon, who had already scored a touchdown earlier in the game, continued to receive praise from the former MVP. Jackson has already praised Flowers for his camp efforts.
The Ravens have a short week because their last preseason game is against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Saturday night. In their final tune-up before the start of the season, they’ll try to exact revenge for their first preseason loss since 2015 and possibly get a look at some of their starters for a few drives.
