Ravens' Odell Beckham Jr.: 'Don't Bet' on My Player Props vs. Steelers in Week 18

Lamar Jackson won't be the only notable member of the Baltimore Ravens' offense sitting out for Saturday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. responded to an Instagram post and jokingly said to not bet on his player props for the Week 18 contest:

Of note, Beckham can trigger a $250,000 contract bonus if he hauls in five more catches, a $500,000 bonus if he adds two touchdowns and $750,000 if he records 185 more yards.

Yet he was ruled out for the contest:

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh already told reporters Jackson will not play against the Steelers as the AFC's No. 1 seed turns its attention toward the playoffs. Baltimore is already locked into the No. 1 seed and the first-round bye regardless of the outcome of Sunday's contest, so there isn't much incentive to play the starters other than potentially avoiding rust.

While the three-time Pro Bowler is no longer one of the best wide receivers in the league, he has been solid for Baltimore this season with 35 catches for 565 yards and three touchdowns. He is the Ravens' No. 2 receiver in terms of yardage this season behind Zay Flowers (858 yards).

Baltimore is red hot at this point with six straight wins, two of which came against fellow championship contenders in the San Francisco 49ers and Miami Dolphins.

Having Jackson, Beckham and others healthy for the playoffs is far more important than playing well against the Steelers, so it seems like betting on the wide receiver's player props isn't the way to go.
