Bateman

2023: Bateman functioned as the Ravens’ WR2 in 2023 but split that role with Odell Beckham and Nelson Agholor. He ran more routes than the other two receivers but was out-targeted by Beckham and caught fewer touchdowns than Agholor. He didn’t register a single top-36 fantasy week in his third season.

What's changed: Baltimore let Odell Beckham leave in free agency and signed Bateman to a two-year contract extension in the spring. The move was a surprise, though its primary function was to give the Ravens a discount compared to picking up Bateman’s fifth-year option.

Outlook: Backed by a literal buy-in from his team in the form of a contract extension, Bateman has a shot at a larger role and a possible breakout campaign this year.
