The Baltimore Ravens may have avoided an injury scare with Odell Beckham Jr.

Beckham came away from the Ravens' Week 2 win over the Cincinnati Bengals with an ankle injury. According to the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the veteran wideout is currently "managing the issue." Rapoport added that if all does go well for him, “it shouldn't affect his availability going forward."

Beckham appeared to have suffered the ankle injury after he completed a 15-yard catch in the first quarter. He was on the sideline for multiple plays, but he was cleared to return to the contest later in the first half. He was later ruled out for the remainder of the divisional matchup during the third quarter.

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said after the game that he does not believe that Beckham’s ankle ailment is a "serious" one, although the team would "learn more" on Monday.

Beckham finished with three catches for 29 receiving yards against the Bengals. He ranks second on the team in receiving yards (66) this season behind rookie wideout Zay Flowers (140).

In the big picture, all eyes now turn to Wednesday and whether Beckham will receive the green light to take part in Baltimore’s first practice session of the week.
