Rashod Bateman Active For Saturday's Divisional Match

Saturday, December 21, 3:24 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (foot) is officially active for Saturday's divisional tilt against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Bateman popped up on the injury report on Wednesday as a non-participant but was able to upgrade to limited participation on Thursday. He carried a questionable tag into today's game but was able to clear protocol. Last weekend, Bateman brought in three of his five targets for 80 yards and two scores. Over his past eight games, he has found the end zone five times and averaged 47.6 yards per contest. Fantasy managers should expect him to continue to operate as the No.2 wide receiver alongside Zay Flowers. Bateman should be viewed as a solid flex option in 14+ team formats and a high-upside, high-risk option in DFS facing a tough Pittsburgh secondary.

Drake London A WR2 In Rookie Quarterback's Week 16 Debut

Friday, December 20, 9:27 PM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London popped up as a limited participant in Friday's practice due to a knee injury but does not carry an injury designation for the contest and is expected to play. Of course, with fantasy championships potentially in play for some, managers will want to keep an eye out for any news in the event something changes. In Week 15, the 23-year-old scored for the first time since Week 9, however, his outlook is a bit uncertain with rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. making his first career start in Week 16 against the Giants. New York has been decent in limiting fantasy production to wide receivers but have been poor against the run. With Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier in tow, the Falcons would be wise to lean on the run game in this one rather than let the rookie QB air it out, so London figures to be more of a WR2 this week rather than his typical WR1 status.
