From the episode

Bateman was basically the cardio guy last week. Just run down the field a lot and don't get any opportunities.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Rashad Bateman ran deep routes in Week 1 without target volume.

Bateman was primarily a deep route runner in Week 1 without generating meaningful target opportunities; with Zay Flowers banged up, there may be some opportunity, but Bateman's role remains limited. Lamar Jackson was asked about Bateman yesterday, which the source notes is not encouraging given Flowers' injury.
