“$750,000 For 50 Catches, $1,000,000 For 1,000 Yards”: Odell Beckham Jr.’s Lucrative Incentives Hold Spotlight as Ravens ‘Hesitate’ To Disclose Lamar Deal

The Baltimore Ravens surprised the NFL world by making a shocking acquisition a few days ago. Much to the upset of a lot of other teams, the Ravens were able to bring Odell Beckham Jr. onto their team. The deal was reportedly brokered by Lamar Jackson and it seems like it’s good news for Ravens fans all over. While the Ravens haven’t yet signed Jackson again, they’ve been making some progressions in terms of OBJ’s contract. However, there is now concern about how Jackson’s deal will shape up. With OBJ’s contract getting more lucrative day by day, is Jackson’s contract in trouble?

While deliberations over Jackson’s contract seem to be happening among the masses, there are some other details offered in terms of OBJ’s contract that are going to catch everyone’s eye.

How much is Odell Beckham Jr. getting paid in incentives?

Every team offers an incentive to their players to perform better. However, they aren’t usually as hefty as the ones offered to OBJ. With his signing, OBJ has been given some massive incentives to perform well throughout the next season.

With such bulky incentives, OBJ has some serious motivation to perform well. However, the question that arises is how will Jackson get paid after such bulky incentives are offered to OBJ. Another factor to keep in mind is the fact that Jackson was the one who reportedly convinced OBJ to come to Baltimore.

While the tasks to gain incentives seem high, it is not a big reach for OBJ. It only remains to be seen what he will be able to earn in the following season.
