Many aren’t expecting a whole lot out of the Baltimore Ravens this coming season, but they may have a couple of wide receivers who will both turn out to be studs.
Odell Beckham Jr. will be returning to the NFL as a member of the team more than a year after tearing his ACL during the Super Bowl, and Baltimore is hoping he regains at least some of his old form.
The team also drafted Zay Flowers in the first round of April’s draft, and he is thought to have plenty of potential.
With the recently signed Lamar Jackson throwing them passes, this trio could find some real success this fall.

Jackson was negotiating with the Ravens for many months in the hopes of landing a lucrative new contract, but to no avail.
They used their non-exclusive franchise tag on him earlier this offseason, which led many to surmise that he had one foot out the door, but the Ravens eventually caved in and gave him a massive $260 million contract in order to keep him around.
Beckham made the Pro Bowl in each of his first three pro seasons, but injuries have sapped him of lots of his production in recent seasons.
At the very least, he can still be a threat in certain situations, even if he isn’t an every-down wideout anymore.
Flowers has outstanding quickness, runs routes well, and is adept at adding additional yardage after the catch.
He, Beckham, and Jackson could help the Ravens win their first playoff game since the 2020 season.
