Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (illness) was sent home on Monday due to an illness, according to Ravens head coach John Harbaugh. There's no reason to think this will be a long-term absence for Bateman, but he could conceivably miss the next few days of practice as well. The 25-year-old is coming off the best season of his career in 2024 when he recorded 45 catches for 756 yards and nine touchdowns in 17 games. Baltimore added some talent to the wide receiver room with the offseason addition of DeAndre Hopkins, but Bateman still profiles as an important piece of the team's offense. The Ravens' low-volume passing offense limits Bateman's fantasy upside, but he has some boom/bust appeal as a flex option in deep leagues due to his ability to make plays down the field.

Zach Jacobson of 247 Sports writes that "something is just different about" wide receiver Romeo Doubs this summer at training camp. "His top-end speed has reached a new level. Feels like there's a new clip every day of him getting behind the secondary." Christian Watson (knee) could miss half of the season after tearing his ACL late last year, but the Packers added receiver Matthew Golden in the first round, so the Packers' wideout room is still very crowded. The 25-year-old Doubs had 46 catches on 72 targets for 601 yards and four touchdowns in 13 regular-season games (12 starts) in 2024 in his third year in the league. He saw about the same volume as 2023 but had a career-high 13.1 yards per catch and 8.3 yards per target. Doubs is probably going to continue to struggle to stand out in Green Bay's offense and is currently ranked at RotoBaller as the WR60 in fantasy.
