Rashod Bateman

3/7: Should benefit from pass-happier Ravens attack under Monken (although discord with him + DeCosta isn't a great look right now)

Rashod Bateman looked like a receiver on his way to a breakout campaign before his season was derailed by a foot sprain in Week 4 and ultimately ended in Week 8 with a LisFranc injury. In Weeks 1-3, he was the WR34 in fantasy points per game with an 18.8% target share, a 30.3% air yard share, and 3.14 yards per route run. Bateman was also only a 72.7% route per dropback player in that stretch. Expect his raw target volume to climb next year if he is a full-time receiver. Bateman's talent is real, but he needs his health to comply and for Baltimore to figure out their quarterback situation for 2023. Bateman is a WR3 that could explode in 2023 if the stars align.
