From the article

Bateman is coming off career-low numbers virtually across the board, but he has seemed revitalized in a more diverse role in Declan Doyle's new offense, including plenty of time in the slot. He also remains on an affordable contract for a WR2. But if rookie receivers Ja'Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt both prove themselves this year, Bateman could be a trade piece next offseason.

Bateman revitalized in new offense but faces suspension risk and rookie competition.

Bateman was among the Texans' exploratory trade targets after Jayden Higgins suffered a torn ACL, but a June arrest for alleged family violence and potential NFL suspension may have been a non-starter for Houston. The Ravens may not be interested in trading the 2021 first-round pick either. Bateman is coming off career-low numbers across the board but has seemed revitalized in Declan Doyle's new offense with plenty of slot usage and remains on an affordable contract for a WR2. However, if rookie receivers Ja'Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt both prove themselves this year, Bateman could become a trade piece next offseason.
