The Baltimore Ravens will have their bye in Week 13 of the NFL season, and it is much needed after a brutal 12 game stretch to start their year where they’ve managed to go 9-3. It will provide them a chance to get healthier and reset, which is much needed after the year they’ve had so far.
Baltimore wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. spoke about the bye week coming at a later time prior to the team’s Week 12 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. He said that the bye came at a great time for the team, comparing it to the bye weeks that teams get earlier in the season.
“No. I think it’s great. To me, you look at the schedule and the way that the season went. To find a way to win this weekend and do the things we’ve been doing and to go in the bye week with that record and have a nice backstretch of the season with five games left, I think it couldn’t have come at a better time. Some teams get [the bye on] Week 4, and then you know you have a long season. To me personally, I think it’ll work out well for all of us. Everybody [will] stay healthy and find a way to win, and it came at a good time.”
