OCT 19 RAYMOND LAUDS BECKHAM’S ‘ACTIVE’ MENTORSHIP As his Detroit Lions prepare for a crucial interconference matchup with the Baltimore Ravens (1 p.m. ET, Fox), receiver Kalif Raymond recalled the impact that Odell Beckham Jr. had on his career.

Raymond, 29, has built a solid, if not well-traveled, NFL career for himself since entering the league as an undrafted free agent out of Holy Cross in 2016. Part of his second season was spent alongside Beckham with the New York Giants and Raymond recalled Beckham taking him under his wing.

“He helped a lot of the guys, but it wasn’t like a limelight help the guys. It wasn’t like, ‘Oh, yeah, I help the guys’ (being said in press conferences). It was very active,” Raymond said of Beckham, per Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News. “He’s like, ‘Man, you’re plenty fast for this league. Slow it down. This game will come to you.”

“It’s a moment like that, man. If you ever watched him in practice … people who know him know how good of a teammate he is … He’s huge. … But even with all that, he’d still find the time to take care of people.”

Raymond is currently working through his third season in Detroit. He has posted the best numbers of his career in the Motor City, earning 1,379 yards on 109 receptions since 2021.

OCT 19 NFL COMMISSIONER ROGER GOODELL EXTENDED – Commissioner Roger Goodell has signed a new contract extension to remain the leader of the league through the 2027 season as team owners approved the agreement at this week’s meetings in New York.
