A “report” surfacing about Odell Beckham Jr. scheduling a yacht trip for the Ravens offense ahead of the playoffs has been going viral on Twitter.
But it’s fake…
In a tweet from Spencer Schultz: “Heard that OBJ has rented out massive yacht known as ‘The Spirit of Baltimore’ and will be taking the Ravens offensive players on it during some down time before the playoffs.”
This, of course, is a reference to Beckham’s time on the Giants, when he and his wide receivers spent time on a yacht in Miami, prior to a playoff loss.
