Bateman's de facto WR1 role offers snap bump despite Ravens' run-heavy scheme.

Rashod Bateman is rostered in only 2% of leagues but could be the Ravens' de facto No. 1 WR when Baltimore hosts the Saints in Week 2, with Zay Flowers sidelined by a hamstring injury and rookie Ja'Kobi Lane leaving with a wrist injury. While No. 1 receiver status might not mean much for a team as run-heavy as Baltimore, and Lamar Jackson has peppered his tight ends with targets throughout his career, Bateman is likely to get a bump in snaps and targets while Flowers and Lane are out.
