Ravens' Rashod Bateman: Gets into end zone Thursday
Rashod Bateman brought in six of eight targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in the Baltimore Ravens' 35-34 win over the Bengals on Thursday night.Bateman tied Mark Andrews for the team lead in receptions while setting the pace in targets. Bateman also ended a two-game touchdown drought with a five-yard grab in the fourth quarter that snapped a 28-28 tie. The fourth-year wideout has been delivering his most consistent production since his rookie 2021 campaign, and he'll head into a pivotal Week 11 road matchup against the Steelers on Sunday, Nov. 17 with a 31-501-4 line on 47 targets across his first 10 games.

Ravens' Rashod Bateman: Three grabs in win
Rashod Bateman caught three of four targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 41-10 win over the Broncos.Bateman was on the field for 35 of the Baltimore Ravens' 57 offensive snaps Sunday, the most of any Baltimore wideout. Despite his ample playing time, the 24-year-old was unable to get much going against the Broncos. He's endured an inconsistent season, and with the arrival of newly-acquired wideout Diontae Johnson, Bateman likely won't make for a reliable weekly fantasy option moving forward.

Ravens' Rashod Bateman: Ugly showing in loss
Rashod Bateman recorded one reception on five targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 29-24 loss to the Browns.Bateman tied for second on the team in targets with Mark Andrews and Nelson Agholor, but it was a performance to forget. He struggled to get on the same page with Lamar Jackson throughout the game, which was illustrated by a drop on a deep target early in the fourth quarter that would have significantly improved his stat line. While it was an ugly showing for Bateman, he does have at least four targets in all but one game this season.

Ravens' Rashod Bateman: Four grabs in Sunday's win
Rashod Bateman caught all four of his targets for 71 yards in Sunday's 30-23 win over the Commanders.Zay Flowers led the Baltimore Ravens in receiving with a 9-132-0 line on nine targets, but Bateman made an impact with his limited looks. The receiving yards were a season high for the fourth-year wideout, but he's seen more than five targets in a game only once in four weeks. Bateman could be a factor again in a potentially high-scoring Week 7 clash with the Buccaneers.

Ravens' Rashod Bateman: Good to go for favorable matchup
Rashod Bateman (groin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Commanders.Bateman had some soreness coming out of Baltimore's Week 5 win over the Bengals, but he steadily increased his activity level throughout the week and was a full participant Friday. He'll slot into his usual role as the No. 2 wide receiver behind Zay Flowers against a generous Washington secondary that has allowed a league-high 10 receiving touchdowns to wide receivers.

Ravens' Rashod Bateman: Bothered by groin injury
Rashod Bateman didn't practice Wednesday due to a groin injury.Bateman handled a typical role in Sunday's 41-38 overtime win at Cincinnati, playing 62 percent of the Baltimore Ravens' offensive snaps and running a route 77 percent of the time while catching four passes for a season-high 58 yards and a touchdown on a season-high eight targets. Practice reports the next couple days should provide a better hint if Bateman is truly at risk of missing Sunday's home game against the Commanders. Head coach John Harbaugh seemed to downplay the injury Wednesday, noting that Bateman and others were merely dealing with normal "after-game type of things," per Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com.

Ravens' Rashod Bateman: Best game of season Sunday
Rashod Bateman caught four of eight targets for 58 yards and a touchdown in the Week 5 win over the Bengals.Bateman's role is settling in -- he played 63 percent of the snaps, marking the third week in a row with a snap share north of 60 percent. However, he was far more active this week, as he set season highs in targets, catches and yards. History suggests that there won't be many weeks where Baltimore is going to the air over 40 times, though it's not out of the question for the Week 6 game against Washington, which is expected to be the highest-scoring matchup of the week. With that in mind, Bateman could be a viable waiver-wire candidate for teams in need of a bye-week replacement.

Ravens' Rashod Bateman: Records one target in win
Rashod Bateman caught his lone target for a 23-yard gain in Sunday's win over the Bills.Bateman nearly scored a touchdown for a second straight week, but he was held by a Buffalo defensive back in the end zone and was unable to come down with the catch. The 2021 first-round pick has played 62 and 65 percent of the snaps in recent weeks after playing more than 80 percent of the snaps in the first two games of the season. Baltimore has started to lean on the ground game and deploy more multi-tight end sets, and fullback Patrick Ricard also has been playing more snaps of late. For the Baltimore pass catchers, the run/pass splits and personnel groupings diminish the opportunities they are likely to see each week. Baltimore has thrown fewer than 20 passes in back-to-back weeks while riding Derrick Henry and the ground game. The Baltimore Ravens head to Cincinnati to face the Bengals in Week 5.
