Rashod Bateman News
Friday, August 21, 2:10 PM
According to TMZ, Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman has been accused of three charges relating to a June incident, including Battery-Family Violence (first offense), Reckless Conduct, and Criminal Damage to Property, according to TMZ. Per reports, Bateman allegedly smashed the windows of a victim's car that had a newborn child inside. Per Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Banner, a Ravens spokesperson said the team is in contact with league officials but would not offer further comment at this time, given that it is still a pending legal matter. Fantasy managers should continue to pay close attention to this case as it is still ongoing. In the event Bateman were to face a suspension, the team's top wide receiver, Zay Flowers, and training camp breakout Ja'Kobi Lane could see an even larger target share early in the season.

Chris Bell News
Tuesday, August 18, 9:40 AM
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Chris Bell (knee) will remain in a red non-contact jersey Tuesday, but head coach Jeff Hafley said the rookie is set to do a little more after making his practice debut Monday. Bell was activated from the non-football injury list Monday as he works back from the torn ACL he suffered at Louisville on Nov. 22. He only took part in individual drills in his first session back. The next step is team work while still wearing red, though Hafley said he doesn't expect Bell to practice against the Giants or play in Saturday's preseason game. Miami is taking this one slowly. Bell, the 94th overall pick in April, caught 72 passes for 917 yards and six touchdowns in 11 games last season before the injury ended his year. There's still no clear date for full contact. Bell getting back onto the field matters, but he's not close enough yet for fantasy managers to count on an immediate role.
