T.J. Hockenson has not been doing any team work since the start of camp and he said last week that his equilibrium has been off because of an ear infection. Hockenson said the condition was improving and he said on Monday that he’s still “taking it day by day” and wants to be out there as a full participant.

The story said there has been speculation that Hockenson’s contract might also factor into his workload. Hockenson is in the final year of his rookie deal but he said he wasn't concerned about a future deal. Hockenson is our third-ranked TE.

The Ravens activated WR Rashod Bateman (foot) from the PUP list, and he’s on the field today.

The Ravens have a chance at one of the top receiving trios in the league if they fall into some good injury luck, and this is a good step in that direction. Even with Todd Monken running the offense, it's unlikely that there will be enough targets going around to support all three guys having a great fantasy year, but there's a good chance they will all pop up from time to time. Rookie Zay Flowers is currently our highest ranked option as the WR43.

Ravens WR Rashod Bateman, who remains on PUP (foot), ran on an adjacent field during training camp practice today. The former first-round pick moved well, and he could be getting close to returning.

On Friday, John Harbaugh said Bateman "has a chance to be out there pretty soon"

Ravens have reinstated WR Rashod Bateman and activated him from the reserve/did not report list.

This is great news as Ravens will hopefully go through all of training camp with their new-look wide receiver group. Beckham likely still offers the most upside of the trio but his floor is scary considering his recent injury history.

Vikings rookie WR Jordan Addison was cited just after 3 a.m. today for speed and reckless driving in St. Paul. He was driving 140 MPH in a 55, according to the Minnesota State Patrol.

This is a *very* tough look for the rookie, particularly with the sort of outcome that happened with a young former NFL player just a couple of years ago. As of now, it looks like maybe no one was hurt but that doesn't rule out league discipline. For fantasy purposes, Osborn has proven to be a reliable target when given the opportunity. We will watch for more news updates.

The rookie third-rounder has impressed his coaches and teammates with his route running and talent. Wilson benefited from DeAndre Hopkins not taking part in any of the voluntary workouts before he was released and Marquise Brown not being involved much this offseason, either. That led to him getting a significant number of reps, which has helped him climb the depth chart to a point where he could be a factor in Arizona's offense from Day 1 of the season.

With Rondale Moore operating as a gadget player from a past regime, and Marquise Brown apparently still working his way back to health, there is a very real chance that Dortch or Wilson could lead the team in targets over the 2023 season.

That may end up being nothing more than a technicality, and not that exciting for a Cardinals team that projects to be pretty awful this year. We currently only have a single option ranked in the top-45 wide receivers (Brown - WR27)

Head coach John Harbaugh said that Rashod Bateman, who sustained a season-ending foot injury last year that required surgery, got a cortisone shot recently, and the goal for him is to continue his rehab and be ready for training camp.

The Ravens are set up with probably the best receiving group Lamar Jackson has ever seen at the professional level if everybody is fully healthy. Bateman is currently ranked as the No. 1 wide receiver in fantasy terms, but that still only makes him a modest WR41. If he can prove that he is fully healthy well ahead of the regular season, we could see him sneak up the rankings a little bit.

This has been the hope for DeAndre Hopkins for some time. The Cardinals had trade talks for months, and they heated up before the draft. Ultimately, no deal. Now, he's a free agent.

We will have to wait and see what other team will be heavily impacted by the eventual signing of Hopkins, but as of now we can expect a target increase for each of Brown, Moore, and, likely, third-round rookie Michael Wilson.

Rashod Bateman took another step in his recovery from foot surgery, joining the Ravens on the field Monday for the first practice of OTAs.

While Bateman will likely be eased back into action this summer, it's a good sign for an integral part of the Ravens' offense in 2023.

If Bateman is on the field throughout the Summer to learn new Offensive Coordinator Todd Monken's system, there's no reason to believe he won't be the team's WR1. Bateman is a good target in best ball leagues, where his big-play potential has been flashed in the past. He is currently ranked as the WR41 at 4for4, but could be moving up if we continue to get positive reports on his health.

Cardinals’ general manager Monti Ossenfort said that he doesn’t expect to trade DeAndre Hopkins at any point during this week's draft.

Kyler Murray got protection in the form of OT Paris Johnson on Night 1, but he still may be losing his biggest offensive piece before long. The entirety of the offense would immediately become suspect if that were to happen, with Murray missing time and a middling WR room behind Hopkins
