Week 18 in the NFL marks the final opportunity for players to capitalize on incentives outlined in their contracts. One notable example is Odell Beckham Jr., who requires two touchdowns to secure a $250,000 bonus.
However, the Baltimore Ravens, having already clinched the AFC North division and the number one seed, may opt to rest Lamar Jackson in their upcoming game against the Steelers, as they have nothing to gain. In the event that Jackson sits out, Tyler Huntley is expected to step in at quarterback. Huntley has limited playing time this season, attempting only nine passes, completing six, and scoring two touchdowns.
In response to an Instagram post, Odell Beckham Jr. humorously advised against betting on his player props for the Week 18 contest. Beckham has the opportunity to trigger various contract bonuses, including $250,000 for five more catches, $500,000 for two additional touchdowns, and $750,000 for 185 more receiving yards.

However, even if Beckham participates in the game, achieving two touchdowns or other prop-related milestones seems unlikely.
Throughout the season, Beckham has contributed significantly to the Ravens’ offense, amassing 35 catches for 565 yards and three touchdowns.
