Who Should I Start? Rashod Bateman or Anthony Schwartz

Wednesday, April 24, 2:11 PM

The Baltimore Ravens signed wide receiver Rashod Bateman to an undisclosed contract extension on Wednesday that ties him to the team through the 2026 season. Bateman was able to stay healthy in 2023, but he was overshadowed by rookie first-rounder Zay Flowers and finished with a disappointing 32 catches for 367 yards and just one touchdown on 56 targets in 16 regular-season games (12 starts) in his third year in the league. The 24-year-old former 27th overall pick in 2021 out of Minnesota hasn't lived up to his first-round billing and has found the end zone just four times in three years. The Ravens continue to say that Bateman is going to have a bigger role in the passing attack in 2024, but fantasy managers will want to see it before they believe it.

Former Cleveland Browns wide receiver Anthony Schwartz is signing with the Miami Dolphins practice squad. The former 2021 third-round pick out of Auburn was waived by the Browns in the offseason with an injury designation. He was later placed on injured reserve and cut with a settlement. With a new contract, Schwartz appears to be healthy and ready to play if called upon. Speed is his calling card, so it's no surprise that Miami would be the team to sign him. He's just the latest former track star to join the roster in South Beach. Schwartz has tallied 14 catches, 186 receiving yards, and one receiving touchdown across 25 games in two seasons.
