Elijah Sarratt News
Saturday, August 15, 7:20 PM
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Elijah Sarratt caught six of his seven targets for 66 yards during Saturday's preseason contest against the Philadelphia Eagles. The rookie fourth-round pick led the team in all three categories -- catches, targets, and yards -- as the Ravens won 24-7 in Week 1 of the preseason. Although fellow rookie Ja'Kobi Lane had the team's lone receiving touchdown, Sarratt was by far the most involved, showcasing a rapport with both Joe Fagnano and Austin Reed. The path to immediate playing time for Sarratt is a bit murky, but a strong preseason will certainly help his case. As it stands, he's behind Zay Flowers, Lane, and Rashod Bateman in the pecking order -- and possibly Devontez Walker, too. The Indiana product sits at WR71 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings.

Colbie Young News
Sunday, August 16, 10:51 AM
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Colbie Young continues to make noise in training camp. Dan Hoard noted Sunday that the rookie seems to come down with at least one catch of 20-plus yards in every practice, and wide receivers coach Troy Walters pointed to Young's size, strength, speed and hands as the reason. More importantly, Walters said Cincinnati's quarterbacks are starting to trust him enough to give him chances downfield. Young, a fourth-round pick out of Georgia, showed some of that in Thursday's preseason opener with two catches for 28 yards, including a 20-yard grab on third-and-16. He has even mixed in for a rep with Joe Burrow, though Andrei Iosivas still has a major experience edge in the No. 3 receiver battle. Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins aren't going anywhere at the top of the depth chart, but Young keeps giving the Bengals reasons to get him on the field. He's turning into one of the more interesting rookie receivers to watch in Cincinnati.
