Bateman (foot) isn't practicing Wednesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Head coach John Harbaugh said Monday that he hoped to have Bateman back this Sunday against the Giants, but it isn't a great sign that the wideout still hasn't practiced since injuring his foot in a Week 4 loss to Buffalo. The Ravens relied on tight end Mark Andrews and wideout Devin Duvernay more heavily with Bateman out of the lineup for the team's 19-17 win over Cincinnati in Week 5, while receivers Demarcus Robinson, Tylan Wallace and James Proche all played more snaps than usual but didn't see many targets. Bateman has two more chances to practice before Sunday's road game.

Coach John Harbaugh said Monday that Bateman (foot) "might be able to come back" Week 6 versus the Giants, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bateman's ankle injury kept him from suiting up for Sunday night's win over the Bengals, but it looks like there's a chance his absence is limited to one game. The second-year pro's participation level on Wednesday's first practice report of the week will reveal more information about his health. It will be a positive sign if Bateman is able to practice on at least a limited basis to start the week.

Bateman (foot) was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
EDGE Analysis
During the Ravens' Week 4 loss to the Bills, Bateman remained on the sideline for a good portion of the second half due to a foot injury, and after failing to practice in any capacity Wednesday through Friday, he'll miss his first game since Week 5 of last season. With the second-year pro unavailable Sunday, Baltimore will turn to Devin Duvernay, Demarcus Robinson, Tylan Wallace and James Proche at wide receiver, while tight end Mark Andrews is a huge favorite to lead the team in targets. Bateman's next chance to play will arrive Sunday, Oct. 16 at the Giants.

Bateman (foot) wasn't spotted at practice Friday, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Bateman also having missed practice Wednesday and Thursday, it doesn't seem especially likely that he'll be able to suit up Sunday night against the Bengals. Friday's upcoming injury report should help clarify Bateman's Week 5 status, but if he's unavailable this weekend, Devin Duvernay and Demarcus Robinson would be in line to lead the Ravens' WR corps.

Bateman (foot) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Bateman having now missed both of the Ravens' first two Week 5 practices, his status is firmly in question for Sunday's game against the Bengals. If Bateman isn't a full participant in Friday's practice session, he'll most likely carry a designation into the weekend, if the Ravens don't rule him out in advance. Devin Duvernay is the only other Ravens wideout that has drawn at least five targets in a game this season, so a potential Bateman absence in Week 5 could result in more field time for No. 2 tight end Isaiah Likely, who has played between 30 and 45 percent of the snaps through the first four games while occasionally sharing the field with top target Mark Andrews.

Bateman (foot) isn't practicing Wednesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bateman had a rough Week 4, dropping three passes and finishing with only 17 yards before exiting with a foot injury in the fourth quarter of a 23-20 loss to the Bills. Head coach John Harbaugh called Bateman day-to-day on Monday, but even if his foot injury isn't a long-term issue, the wideout could still miss time. The Ravens don't have much depth behind him, with Devin Duvernay and Demarcus Robinson getting most of the receiver snaps that haven't gone to Bateman.

Coach Jon Harbaugh said Monday that Bateman's fourth-quarter absence during Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Bills was due to a foot injury, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Harbaugh called Bateman day-to-day and downplayed the severity of the issue, per Shaffer, so it appears that the second-year pro still has a chance of suiting up Week 5 versus the Bengals. The foot injury provides some context to Bateman's three catches (on six targets) for 17 yards, a season-low for him in terms of receiving yardage. Wednesday's first official injury report of the week will provide an update on Bateman's status.

Bateman secured three of six targets for 17 yards in the Ravens' 23-20 loss to the Bills on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Bateman was one of the victims fantasy-wise of what was a lackluster showing through the air for Lamar Jackson. The second-year wideout's receiving yardage total was a season low, but he'll aim to play a much more prominent role in a Week 5 Sunday night AFC North showdown against the Bengals at home.

Bateman brought in two of four targets for 59 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 37-26 win over the Patriots.
EDGE Analysis
After making noise with a pair of touchdowns in the first two weeks, Bateman matched his Week 1 line sans the score in the high-scoring Week 3 win. The second-year wideout profiles as a significant component in the air attack in his role as the team's No. 1 receiver, and he's likely to become more of a week-to-week factor as his first full season as a starter unfolds. Bateman will look to play an even more prominent role in what should be a wire-to-wire battle with the Bills at home in Week 4.

Coach John Harbaugh indicated that Bateman, who missed practice Friday for personal reasons, will play Sunday against the Patriots.
EDGE Analysis
Harbaugh also noted that Devin Duvernay (concussion) has been cleared to play in the contest, which sets the stage for the Ravens' Week 3 wideout corps to be led by Bateman, Duvernay and Demarcus Robinson. Through his first two games this season, Bateman has recorded a 6-167-2 stat line on 12 targets, with his steady involvement in Baltimore's passing attack giving the 2021 first-rounder weekly fantasy utility.
