Rashod Bateman Diagnosed With Soft Tissue Injury
Rashod Bateman (leg) was forced to exit Tuesday's practice after suffering an injury while running a route. Ian Rapoport of NFL.com reports that the injury that Bateman suffered is a soft tissue injury. He is slated to undergo further tests, which will help determine the severity. The good news for Bateman is that the injury isn't structural. Bateman remains a sleeper worth targeting in the late rounds of drafts. The 2021 first round pick has a chance to play a big role in the Ravens' offense this year.

Rashod Bateman Ends The Year On Strong Note
Rashod Bateman registered the best season of his career and capped it off with another touchdown in the loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. The fourth-year wideout out of Minnesota finished the game with four receptions on five targets for 66 yards and a touchdown which brought his total to 11 touchdowns between the regular and postseason. Most of his damage came in the first half along with his 16-yard catch that kicked off all of the scoring in the opening drive. Bateman still has another year left on his contract, so he's likely looking at more of the same role going into the 2025 season.

Rashod Bateman Looks To Return To The End Zone Against Bills
Rashod Bateman scored his first career postseason touchdown in the big win over the Pittsburgh Steelers during the Wild Card round. It's likely going to be a bit more difficult against the Buffalo Bills as they roll into freezing cold weather with a chance of a bit of snow. Derrick Henry and company dominated in Week 4 while Bateman saw just one target and caught it for 23 yards. That seems to be all Bateman needs, however, as he had two catches for 24 yards and the touchdown last week. With Zay Flowers (knee) listed as doubtful, Bateman could serve as the outlet outside of the backfield and tight ends.

Rashod Bateman Catches First Postseason Touchdown
Rashod Bateman came into Saturday's Wild-Card game as the No. 1 receiver with Zay Flowers (knee) inactive and got in on the scoring action to help beat the Pittsburgh Steelers. In his third career postseason game, Bateman finished with two catches for 24 yards and a touchdown on two targets. His 15-yard touchdown started off all of the scoring in the first quarter when quarterback Lamar Jackson found him going over the middle in the end zone. That was also Bateman's first postseason touchdown in his four-year career. He'll look to find the end zone again in the divisional round against either the Buffalo Bills or Houston Texans next weekend.

Rashod Bateman An Intriguing DFS Option In Wild-Card Round
Rashod Bateman steps into the top receiver role with Zay Flowers (knee) getting ruled out for the opening playoff matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. While Bateman did score against the Steelers in their last outing, he has only posted 44 total yards and three receptions on eight targets. He'll likely play a bigger role in the offense rather than serve as a deep threat while both tight ends will play important parts as well. Bateman always carries big play ability, but the Steelers' corners are good in coverage which makes him more of an intriguing option in bigger DFS tournaments rather than cash games.
