Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman is believed to be a possible trade target for the Houston Texans, according to sources.
Huddle Up: Bateman may become available since Ja'Kobi Lane has been performing well during training camp, so fantasy players should see if the Texans will look to acquire him. He would probably be the No. 2 or No. 3 receiver if he joins the Texans but is unlikely to be a starting fantasy option most weeks.

Baltimore Ravens WR Ja'Kobi Lane finished with three receptions on three targets for 38 yards and a touchdown in the preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles Saturday, Aug. 15.
Huddle Up: Lane has drawn rave reviews throughout offseason activities and training camp, and he didn't disappoint in his first preseason action. At the very least, Lane has put himself in the conversation to be the No. 3 receiver in Baltimore, and it isn't out of the question that he surpasses Rashod Bateman in the pecking order. Lane should be snatched up in the later rounds.

Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson will reportedly not play in any preseason games, according to Ravens HC Jesse Minter on Tuesday, Aug. 11.
Huddle Up: Jackson's 2025 numbers were almost halved from his sublime 2024 season where he threw 41 touchdown passes, rushed for 915 yards, and added four scores on the ground. With just 349 rushing yards and 21 passing touchdowns last season, it's starting to feel like some of Jackson's overall upside from earlier in his career may be a thing of the past. We know Jackson is plenty mobile, but can he bring the passing efficiency along for the ride to help mitigate those losses on the ground? Jackson is a top-four fantasy quarterback this season, but for the first time, it seems like there are some warts coming up to the surface for Jackson as a fantasy asset.

Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers (quadriceps) returned to practice Tuesday, Aug. 11.
Huddle Up: Flowers was the WR7 in PPR leagues after a 86-1,211-5 line last season. He has security with a new contract, and there's no reason he can't maintain his midrange WR1 status or even top it in 2026.

Baltimore Ravens WR Ja'Kobi Lane has earned a role in the offense with his play in training camp, according to head coach Jesse Minter. "There is consistency of making really contested, nice catches and being a really friendly target for the quarterback," Minter said. "He's certainly starting to see a vision of maybe what he can become in the offense."
Huddle Up: Lane looks poised to open the year as Baltimore's No. 3 receiver, and if he continues to excel, he could certainly surpass Rashod Bateman in the pecking order. His ability to make contested catches could come in handy in the red zone, and while consistent production is not a guarantee with Lane, he is worth scooping up in the later rounds, especially in deeper leagues.

Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman said he has been lining up at multiple positions during practices, and believes he can be more than a one-dimensional player in offensive coordinator Declan Doyle's system.
Huddle Up: Bateman did not have a lot of success last season but seems to be performing well during training camp. He should see a handful of targets each game this season but is unlikely to be a starting fantasy option most weeks.

Updating a previous report, Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers (quadriceps) is considered day-to-day because of a quadriceps contusion, according to head coach Jesse Minter.
Huddle Up: Flowers could miss a few practices but does not appear to be dealing with anything serious. He will see plenty of targets this season and will be a No. 2 or No. 3 receiver in fantasy leagues.

Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers said he added eight pounds during the offseason and currently weight 186 pounds.
Huddle Up: Flowers is looking to break more tackles with the added weight, but he should still have his speed to help with the yards after catch. He is the main target in the passing game for the Ravens and will be a weekly starting option in all leagues.

Baltimore Ravens WR Ja'Kobi Lane has been the "star" of training camp, in the opinion of ESPN's Jamison Hensley, who writes that Lane has become the team's No. 3 receiver behind WRs Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman.
Huddle Up: Outside of Flowers, the Ravens haven't had much success developing receivers, so if Lane continues to excel that could be a huge boost for Lamar Jackson and the offense in general. Fantasy owners needn't adjust their draft plans just yet -- don't forget that DeAndre Hopkins finished second among the Ravens' receivers in 2025 with 330 yards -- but given how effusive the praise has been for Lane, it's at least a name to file away.

Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers has agreed to a four-year, $140 million extension that includes $108 million guaranteed on Tuesday, Aug. 4.
Huddle Up: Flowers has emerged as the WR1 for the Ravens, and now he is being paid as one. Flowers finished as a WR1 in 2025, and all signs are pointing to him being able to repeat that for fantasy players.

Baltimore Ravens RB Derrick Henry did not participate in practice Saturday, Aug. 1, because of a scheduled day off.
Huddle Up: Henry will likely receive several days off during camp because he is a veteran and is unlikely to see much work during preseason games. He should receive plenty of carries again this season and can be at least a No. 2 running back in fantasy leagues.

Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman was "in sync" with QB Lamar Jackson during training camp Wednesday, July 29.
Huddle Up: Bateman is coming off a disappointing season, but he still has a chance to enter the year as Baltimore's No. 2 receiver. If he remains a starter, he is worth grabbing in the later rounds in case he bounces back.

Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman is coming off a disappointing 2025 season, but general manager Eric DeCosta said he expects Bateman to have a productive season in 2026 and is excited to see him in offensive coordinator Declan Doyle's system.
Huddle Up: Bateman posted only 19 receptions and 224 yards last season, so he should be able to improve on those numbers this offseason. He can be a late round pick in fantasy leagues but is not a weekly starting option at this point.

Baltimore Ravens RB Derrick Henry's 17 runs of 20-plus yards last season led the NFL and were four more than any other player.
Huddle Up: Age continues to be just a number for Henry, and in his two seasons in Baltimore, he has rushed for a combined 3,516 yards and scored 34 total touchdowns. A lack of receiving production limits his ceiling, especially in PPR formats, but he remains a must-start option who will provide plenty of RB1 weeks.

Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman may be pushed by WR Ja'Kobi Lane and WR Elijah Sarratt for playing time if he does not have a strong training camp, in the opinion of RavensWire's Glenn Erby.
Huddle Up: Bateman is likely the leading candidate for the No. 2 receiver job but is coming off a disappointing 2025 season. He should see a handful of targets each game this season but is unlikely to be a starting fantasy option most weeks.

Baltimore Ravens third-round pick WR Ja'Kobi Lane's size, catch radius and wingspan could make him a weapon in the red zone.
Huddle Up: He's fourth on the depth chart right now, but there's a lane to rising as high as WR2 for the team. Keep an eye on him in camp and consider him a late-round flyer in fantasy drafts.

Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers' 1,211 receiving yards in 2025 accounted for 36.9% of the Ravens' total receiving yards, which was the second-highest percentage for any player.
Huddle Up: Flowers set career highs in receptions, targets and receiving yards last year, and he has firmly established himself as the go-to option for Lamar Jackson. His low touchdown totals cap his upside a bit, but Flowers should be in the WR2 mix with the ability to deliver occasional WR1 performances.

Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers could receive a contract extension from the Ravens before the start of the 2026 season, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Jamison Hensley.
Huddle Up: Flowers had his fifth-year option picked up this offseason, so he is still under contract for a few more seasons even if a new deal is not reached during training camp. He will be the main target in the passing game even with a new offensive system and can be at least a No. 3 receiver in fantasy leagues.

Baltimore Ravens PK Tyler Loop struggled down the stretch in 2025, but the team and new head coach Jesse Minter aren't dwelling on the past. He noted the team intentionally creates pressure situations during practice to test the kicker. "We want to create opportunities for him to have these moments in front of people, in front of the team," Minter said.
Huddle Up: Loop had a good start to his rookie season, as he replaced a legend in Justin Tucker. Loop struggled down the stretch, but with a new coaching staff comes a clean slate, and they reportedly believe in him. The Baltimore offense should be one which is high scoring, so he could be a fantasy asset, assuming he gets back on track.

Baltimore Ravens TE Durham Smythe said on a podcast that his familiarity with new offensive coordinator Declan Doyle's system was a major factor in choosing the team in the free agency process, and "kind of a no-brainer". He added that working with TE Mark Andrews heading up the tight ends' room was important, too. "Being able to come in and work with Mark a little bit, I think it was a perfect situation for me," Smythe said.
Huddle Up: The veteran isn't likely to step into a major offensive role, attempting to fill the void of the departed Isaiah Likely. He'll more than likely be more of a blocking tight end with occasional targets. For fantasy purposes, think more along the lines of the value of Charlie Kolar in past seasons, with his value limited to the deepest of leagues only.

Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson said he doesn't want to discuss contract negotiations but "absolutely" wants to remain with the Ravens.
Huddle Up: Jackson dealt with some injuries last season, but his dual-threat ability gives him as much fantasy upside as any quarterback in the league. If he stays healthy, he should be in the mix to be the overall QB1.

Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman was not present for the voluntary workout Wednesday, May 27.
Huddle Up: Bateman should be on the field for the mandatory minicamp next month and is on track to be one of the starting receivers for the Ravens in 2026. He is coming off a disappointing season but could still be a late round pick in some fantasy leagues.

Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman was not present for the voluntary workout Tuesday, May 19.
Huddle Up: Bateman is in line to start opposite Zay Flowers this upcoming season and will look to improve on his 224 receiving yards and two touchdowns from last season. He can be a late round pick in some fantasy leagues but will not be a starting option most weeks.

Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson was not at the team's OTA practices on Tuesday, May 19.

Baltimore Ravens WR Ja'Kobi Lane was a pick that differed from public opinion, but general manager Eric DeCosta likes what he saw in the evaluation process, and Lane had a connection to a former Baltimore great. "Our board is our board. We do months of work, and sometimes our evaluations differ from public consensus. Lane is a big receiver -- 6'4", ran a 4.46, excellent at contested catches with great hands," DeCosta said. "He has a connection through Todd Heap. We think he can be a real weapon for Lamar, especially adding big-bodied jump-ball guys after losing some speed."
Huddle Up: The Ravens have Rashod Bateman, Zay Flowers and Tez Walker at the top of the depth chart, while holdover LaJohntay Wester and fellow rookie Elijah Sarratt will be battling Lane for the No. 4 job on the depth chart following the departures of DeAndre Hopkins and Tylan Wallace. Lane isn't likely to have an immediately fantasy role in most leagues from the jump, but he is a player worth monitoring, and he has some value in long-term keeper formats.

Baltimore Ravens TE Matthew Hibner was a player the organization really liked, and it made a rare move, trading up 21 spots to get him in the 2026 NFL Draft. "For (Hibner), we actually traded up 21 spots to get him. That's rare for us, but we saw great value," general manager Eric DeCosta said. "He's athletic and productive. We gave up a future sixth-round pick and felt it was worth it to move from the fifth to the fourth round."
Huddle Up: The team likes Hibner's athleticism and production, and hope he adds versatility to the new offense of coordinator Declan Doyle. He likely will be quickly brought along to fill the role of the departed Isaiah Likely and/or Charlie Kolar, working behind Mark Andrews. Don't go out and draft Hibner, but file his name away and watch him closely during training camp into the preseason.

Indiana WR Elijah Sarratt was selected by the Baltimore Ravens with the 115th overall selection in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Huddle Up: Sarratt should have a chance to compete for the No. 3 or No. 4 receiver job during training camp, so fantasy players can keep an eye on his status. He is unlikely to make a big impact during his rookie season and can be avoided in most leagues.

USC WR Ja'Kobi Lane was selected by the Baltimore Ravens with the 80th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Huddle Up: Lane will be Baltimore's latest attempt at finding a reliable No. 2 receiver to pair with Zay Flowers, and while success is far from a guarantee, Lane is in solid position to produce as a rookie. If he can take advantage of the opportunity, Lane could prove to be a steal as a a second-round pick in rookie drafts.

Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers had his fifth-year option exercised Thursday, April 23. He'll earn $28 million in 2027.
Huddle Up: Flowers delivered a 86-1,211-5 line and wound up being the WR7 in PPR leagues in a season Lamar Jackson missed significant time. He'll turn 26 in September and remains a great, low-end WR1 option in fantasy.
