Rashod Bateman News
Monday, September 14, 6:03 AM
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman was held without a target in Week 1's 41-23 win over the Indianapolis Colts. Despite the lack of production, Bateman remained a key part of the offense, playing 53 of 68 snaps (78%) and leading the team in routes run (27). Bateman could see a significant increase in volume in the next few weeks, given injuries to Zay Flowers (hamstring) and Ja'Kobi Lane (wrist). The Ravens offense looked prolific in Week 1, and with the New Orleans Saints on the schedule in Week 2, Bateman could have an opportunity to produce with Flowers and Lane uncertain to play. Fantasy managers should consider adding Bateman, as he could serve as the lead receiver for star quarterback Lamar Jackson.

Tre Tucker News
Monday, September 14, 11:24 AM
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker had a quiet opener in Sunday's 27-13 win over Miami, catching two of four targets for 27 yards. He still tied for the most receiving yards among Raiders wideouts, but the four targets are the bigger takeaway. Brock Bowers was out with a knee injury, and Las Vegas still spread the passing work around rather than funneling it toward Tucker. That makes the Week 1 usage a little disappointing. It does not erase his role, though. Tucker started all 17 games last season and led the Raiders with 696 receiving yards while catching 57 passes and scoring five touchdowns. He also opened 2026 listed with the first team opposite Jalen Nailor. RotoBaller still has Tucker among its top 10 wide receiver pickups for Week 2, which fits the profile here. He is not a priority claim after four targets, especially if Bowers returns soon, but he remains worth adding in 12-team leagues as receiver depth ahead of Sunday's road game against the Chargers.
