Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman continues the best season of his career as he caught another touchdown pass in the Week 10 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals. The former first-round pick finished with six receptions for 54 yards and a score on eight targets. Bateman is now 14 yards shy of his career-high for receiving yards in a single season and has done so with 15 fewer receptions so far. He's starting to turn a corner and become the big-play receiver that the Ravens hoped he would be. His next chance to score will be against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 11.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman is currently on pace to shatter all of his career highs for stats in a single season. He averages 18.8 yards per reception, 56.3 yards per game, and 13.1 yards per target so far. His counterpart, Zay Flowers (ankle), received a questionable designation, so he could even move up in the target order for this game. On top of that, he draws a favorable matchup as the Cleveland Browns are the fifth-easiest matchup for opposing receiver groups. They allow 31.1 fantasy points per game in half-PPR formats. All of that gives Bateman some more flex appeal when it comes to Week 8.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman continues his great play by breaking the 100-yard mark for the first time since Week 2 of the 2022 season. The former 27th-overall pick finished Monday night's game with four receptions, 121 yards, and a touchdown on four targets. He's already topped his total yardage from last season and now hit a career-high for touchdowns in a season. Bateman flashed his speed during his touchdown play which saw Lamar Jackson drop the ball right in his hands on his way into the end zone. Bateman will look to burn some more defensive backs in Week 8 against the Cleveland Browns.

Ravens' WR Rashod Bateman had 4 receptions for 121 yards with one touchdown in Monday's win in Tampa Bay.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman continues to be heavily involved in the passing game this year. During the 30-23 win over the Washington Commanders, Bateman registered four catches for 71 yards on four targets. He was tied for the second-most targets with Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely. He's on pace for a career-high in receiving yards and has already tied his career-high for touchdowns in a single season. He also has his second-best yards per target right now with 9.2. Bateman will try to get back into the end zone in Week 7 on Monday night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (groin) will suit up for Sunday's matchup with the Commanders. The 24-year-old didn't practice on Wednesday and was limited in Thursday's session. Fortunately, he was back on Friday, clearing him for Week 6. Washington has struggled against opposing wideouts in 2024-25. Still, Bateman's fantasy success is contingent mainly on whether or not he'll find the end zone, considering he has three or fewer catches in four games this season. However, he at least garners flex consideration for the favorable matchup.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (groin) was limited in Thursday's practice. This was Bateman's first practice of the week after missing Wednesday's session. He is battling a groin injury heading into Sunday's matchup with the Washington Commanders. The Commanders' secondary is ranked 26th in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers. Bateman is coming off his best performance of the season, receiving eight targets and catching four of them for 58 yards and a touchdown. If active, Bateman will look to capitalize on a favorable matchup and build upon that success if the groin injury doesn't hold him back. Bateman is ranked RotoBaller's WR53, making him a borderline flex play in Week 6.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (groin) was sidelined from practice on Wednesday. Bateman is a new addition to the injury report as he was not banged up heading into last Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The 24-year-old has posted modest stats through five games this season, tallying 13 catches, 202 yards, and two touchdowns. So far, he's the overall WR52 in fantasy football and should only be started in leagues with 14 teams or more. Of course, that's contingent on him being healthy. There is a real chance that Bateman's DNP on Wednesday eventually leads to him being inactive against the Washington Commanders in Week 6.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman has already tied his career-high for touchdowns in a single season after hauling in his second of the year on Sunday. During the 41-38 overtime win over the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals, the fourth-year wideout caught four of his eight targets for 58 yards and a touchdown. The coaching staff hyped up Bateman's growth and hard work throughout the offseason, and so far, he's looked deserving of the positive feedback. His yards per target are currently at a career-high (10.3). and he has his second-highest catch percentage (64.3%). Zay Flowers remains the No. 1 weapon of the receiving corps, but Bateman has been a quality outlet for quarterback Lamar Jackson. He'll look to keep the good times rolling against the Washington Commanders in Week 6.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman found the end zone for the first time since Week 11 of the 2023 season. In the team's three-point win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, Bateman hauled in three receptions for 28 yards and a touchdown on four targets. Bateman ran a beautiful route in the second quarter and found himself wide open in the end zone where Lamar Jackson hit him with a perfect pass for a 13-yard score. The former first-round pick received a lot of praise during the offseason which made him more of a deep sleeper candidate heading into the season. Through three games, Bateman now has eight catches for 121 yards on 13 targets. He'll look to double last season's touchdown output as the Ravens return home to face the Buffalo Bills in Week 4.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman has endured an injury-riddled career so far and hasn't lived up to the expectations that come with a first-round draft pick. The former 27th-overall pick enters this year with a lot to prove and some added expectations after the team didn't retain Odell Beckham Jr. All of the talk surrounding Bateman in camp has been positive, so it seems Bateman could be in for a better year, but fantasy managers should proceed with caution. While he only missed one game last year, he operated as the third and fourth receiver most times while posting 367 yards and one touchdown on 32 receptions. Bateman isn't on the fantasy radar during Week 1, but could be a stash type of player if he shows improvement.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (undisclosed) returned to training camp practice on Monday after suffering a minor injury to his midsection during practice a week ago when he fell on a football. The 24-year-old was held out of the preseason opener on Friday against the Philadelphia Eagles as a precaution but is now back with the rest of the team and should get some reps in this Saturday in the second preseason contest. The Ravens have said all offseason that they expect Bateman to take on a bigger role in 2024 after he caught just 32 passes for 367 yards and one touchdown in 16 regular-season games a year ago. At best, he'll be the No. 3 passing-game target behind Zay Flowers and tight end Mark Andrews. Fantasy managers in standard 12-team leagues are going to want to see Bateman prove it before picking him up off the waiver wire.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman is expected to be back on the practice field soon, according to head coach John Harbaugh. Bateman appeared to have suffered an upper body injury during practice last Monday. Harbaugh said the issue isn't serious, but Bateman sat out of the preseason opener anyway. The Ravens are likely just being cautious with young wideout who missed 12 games in 2022. He hauled in 32 receptions for 367 yards and one touchdown in 16 games last season. We'll see if he's able to build upon that heading into 2024.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (midsection) suffered an injury in training camp on Monday and was seen walking off the field with a trainer holding his ribs or midsection. Head coach John Harbaugh did clear things up with Bateman's injury, saying it was not serious and that he landed on the ball. Bateman should be able to return to practice in a couple of days, where he'll be competing for a starting wide receiver job. His 2023 was not super encouraging to that end, as Bateman reeled in just 32 passes for 367 yards and one touchdown in 16 regular season games. The former 2021 first-round pick has a ways to go before getting back into fantasy football managers' good graces, but at best, Bateman is a late-round flier this season in the hopes that he can fulfill some of the expectations from when he was drafted.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman suffered an injury to his midsection during Monday's training camp practice. It's unclear exactly what type of injury Bateman suffered, but he was seen walking off the field with a trainer while holding his midsection or ribs. The 24-year-old wasn't able to finish practice and may now be in danger of missing the team's preseason opener on Friday against the Philadelphia Eagles. Baltimore's coaching staff said all offseason that Bateman was going to have a much bigger role in the passing game in 2024 after he caught only 32 passes for 367 yards and one touchdown in 16 regular-season games a year ago. But Bateman has already dealt with multiple injuries in training camp, and fantasy managers will most likely want to see it before believing it with the former first-rounder.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (undisclosed) is back practicing at Wednesday's training camp. After leaving Monday's practice and missing Tuesday's session, Bateman is back on the field for the Ravens on Wednesday after his undisclosed injury was downplayed. The 24-year-old deep threat will have a chance to cement himself as superstar quarterback Lamar Jackson's No. 3 option in the passing game behind star wideout Zay Flowers and All-Pro tight end Mark Andrews in 2024, but he'll need to do a better job of staying healthy this year after dealing with a Lisfranc injury in the past. After posting a healthy 14.5 yards of average target distance in Baltimore's potent offense last season, Bateman profiles as a post-hype sleeper in the final rounds of 12-team fantasy drafts this summer.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (undisclosed) did not practice on Tuesday with soreness. The Ravens have not disclosed where Bateman is experiencing soreness or the extent of his injury. Bateman enters 2024 with an excellent opportunity to cement himself as the No. 2 wide receiver behind Zay Flowers. Injuries have prevented Bateman from fulfilling his full potential throughout his three NFL seasons. He did manage to stay on the field for 16 games in 2023 and recorded 367 receiving yards and one touchdown. Those numbers will not help anyone in fantasy, so it will take a legitimate breakout for Bateman to provide any value. However, Bateman's presence on the field will certainly take attention away from Flowers and tight end Mark Andrews. It is disheartening to see such a talented player deal with yet another injury, but hopefully, Bateman will be back on the field soon.

Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman (undisclosed) left practice early Monday, July 29, but head coach John Harbaugh said Bateman is just dealing with some soreness.

Jul 29 3:10pm CT

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (undisclosed) jogged off the practice field an hour into Monday's training camp practice and did not return. However, head coach John Harbaugh said the injury is not considered to be serious. Given Bateman's troubles staying on the field through his first three NFL seasons, it's a good sign that he will likely be fine, but it's still concerning. The former first-round pick out of Minnesota has played in just 35 of his 51 possible regular season contests to begin his career and has collected 93 receptions for 1,167 yards and four touchdowns. There has been buzz surrounding the 24-year-old this offseason, but he could have a tough time being a weekly fantasy contributor in a run-heavy offense while competing for targets with Pro Bowl tight end Mark Andrews and ascending wideout Zay Flowers.

Jul 22 8:10pm CT

According to Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh, wide receiver Rashod Bateman is expected to be a "top receiver" in the NFL. "Rashod's been working to make plays," said Harbaugh, addressing the media following Monday's practice. "To see him come out and make those catches, those are great catches. Traffic catches, one catch he plucked off the ground there. I was excited, everybody was fired up about it." Bateman, who received a contract extension this offseason, hasn't met expectations since entering the league, amassing only 93 receptions for 1,167 yards and four touchdowns. He's also been limited to 35 games due to injury. With that said, the 24-year-old likely hasn't reached his ceiling from a potential standpoint. However, the Ravens offense is loaded with capable producers, so it could be tough for anyone not named Lamar Jackson to remain consistently involved for fantasy managers.
