Odell Beckham Jr. Earns $16M on Ravens' 1-Year Contract Following Final Incentives

Even though the Baltimore Ravens' season ended in disappointing fashion with a 17-10 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game, Odell Beckham's comeback year was a success from a financial standpoint.

Per Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio, Beckham earned a total of $16 million after hitting three incentives in his contract.

The Ravens signed Beckham to a one-year, $15 million deal in April. The contract included an additional $3 million in incentives based on receptions, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns.

Beckham reached the first level on his receptions (30) and receiving touchdowns (three) to earn $250,000 for each. He hit the second level of his receiving yards threshold (500) to earn an additional $500,000.

The three-time Pro Bowler finished the season with 35 receptions, 565 yards and three touchdowns. His 16.1 yards per reception was the highest single-season mark of his career.

This was a strong year overall for Beckham considering he sat out the entire 2022 season recovering from a torn ACL. He didn't make the same impact for the Ravens that he did for the Los Angeles Rams, particularly during their playoff run two years ago, but he was a reliable downfield option for Lamar Jackson.

It will be interesting to see if the Ravens decide to bring Beckham back. They reworked his deal earlier this month to remove the void years, which will allow them to designate him as a post-June 1 release and spread out his dead cap hits if they can't agree to terms on a new contract by March 14.

The Ravens were the No. 1 seed in the AFC and had the best record in the NFL during the regular season (13-4). They advanced to the conference title game for the first time since winning Super Bowl 47 at the end of the 2012 season.
