The Ravens placed Bateman (groin) on injured reserve Wednesday.
Miles Boykin (hamstring) will join Bateman on IR, meaning that the two receivers won't be eligible to return to action any sooner than Week 4. In the meantime, the team's wideout corps is currently comprised of Marquise Brown, Sammy Watkins, James Proche, Devin Duvernay and Tylan Wallace. Bateman is recovering from the core-muscle surgery he required in mid-August.
