2025 Fantasy Football Impact
Bateman set career highs across the board last season with 45 catches, 756 yards, and nine TDs. He finished 40th among WRs in PPR points.
The contract extension locks Bateman is as the Ravens' No. 2 WR behind Zay Flowers. But he'll have trouble matching last year's fantasy production. Bateman averaged 10.5 yards per target and scored on 20% of his receptions in 2024. That latter mark will be especially tough to repeat going forward.
Bateman ranked just 56th among WRs in targets and 71st in expected PPR points per game last year. Consider him a WR5 in 2025 fantasy drafts — although his downfield role gives him more value in best ball leagues.
