Top 10 Running Back Studs - Best Fantasy Football RB Performances from Week 5

The only constants that we can count in the universe are taxes, Tom Brady getting phantom calls from the referees, and Nick Chubb finishing in the top 10 each and every week. Some familiar faces also returned to the top 10 with Austin Ekeler, Leonard Fournette, Dalvin Cook, Alvin Kamara, and Christian McCaffrey giving robust […]

Rashod Bateman Could Return In Week 6

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (foot) missed the Week 5 game against the Cincinnati Bengals, but head coach John Harbaugh said he might be back for the matchup with the New York Giants in Week 6. Bateman is far from a must-start, but he has upside as the No. 1 WR in Baltimore. Based […]

Marcus Williams To Be Placed On Injured Reserve

Baltimore Ravens safety Marcus Williams (wrist) will be placed on Injured Reserve after dislocating his wrist in the win against the Cincinnati Bengals. His injury won't be season-ending, but it could be significant for fantasy football. The Ravens' secondary has already been among the worst in the NFL, so it could be getting even worse. […]

Marcus Williams To Miss Significant Time

Baltimore Ravens safety Marcus Williams (wrist) is expected to miss a significant amount of time, according to head coach John Harbaugh. He injured his wrist during Sunday's matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. The organization believes that Williams has suffered a dislocated wrist, which is not good news for them. The expectation is that Williams is […]

Ravens Defense Records Three Sacks In Win

The Baltimore Ravens defense had a bounce-back performance in Week 5 as they recorded three sacks and an interception on Joe Burrow in the 19-17 win. Patrick Queen recorded the interception, while Marcus Peters, Josh Bynes, and newly-signed Jason Pierre-Paul recorded the sacks. They draw a good matchup in Week 6 with the Giants, who […]

Justin Tucker Makes Game-Winning Field Goal In Week 5

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker made all four of his field-goal attempts in the team's 19-17 win over the Bengals in Week 5. Tucker nailed the game-winning kick with no time left on the clock, once again proving to be the best at his position in the league. Tucker made a season-high 58-yard attempt in […]

Devin Duvernay Totals 78 Yards In Week 5

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Devin Duvernay caught five of seven targets for 54 yards and added 24 yards on the ground in the team's Week 5 win over the Bengals. The speedy wideout has been impressive so far this season, setting a career-high in touchdowns through just five games. If Rashod Bateman continues to be […]

Mark Andrews Totals 89 Yards And Scores In Win

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews caught eight of 10 targets for 89 yards and a touchdown in the 19-17 win over the Bengals on Sunday night. Andrews came up big in the absence of Rashod Bateman, as he has continued to be Lamar Jackson's favorite target this season. Andrews has seen 10+ targets in […]

J.K. Dobbins Finishes With Eight Touches In Win

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins carried the ball just eight times for 44 yards in the team's Week 5 win over the Bengals. The Ravens' offense ran the ball 28 times, so this could be a sign that they will continue to be cautious with Dobbins as he works his way back up to […]

Lamar Jackson Throws For 174 Yards In Win

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson completed 19-of-32 passes for 174 yards and a touchdown in the 19-17 win over the Bengals in Week 5. Jackson didn't look like his early-season self in this one, as he struggled to connect on deep passes and threw an interception. The dual-threat has had two straight disappointing fantasy performances, […]

Marcus Williams Doubtful To Return Sunday Night

Baltimore Ravens safety Marcus Williams (wrist) suffered a wrist injury in the Sunday night game against the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals and is doubtful to return in the second half. Before leaving, Williams recorded two solo tackles for his fantasy managers. With the 26-year-old unlikely to return to this contest, Kyle Hamilton will be asked to […]

J.K. Dobbins Officially Active Against Cincinnati

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins (chest) will play on Sunday night versus the Cincinnati Bengals. The former Buckeye didn't practice on Wednesday because of a chest issue, the same injury he had heading into the Week 4 meeting against Buffalo. However, the ailment didn't seem to bother him too much, especially since he finished […]

Ronnie Stanley Will Return On Sunday Night

Baltimore Ravens offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley (ankle) will officially make his long-awaited return for the AFC North battle against the Cincinnati Bengals. The All-Pro, who has played sparingly over the last few seasons, had been dealing with an ankle issue and was working his way back ever since. Considering the Ravens have had issues keeping […]
