It probably needed to be this past Sunday if it was going to happen anytime soon. 5 of their next 7 games are against playoff contenders and Fangio is a pretty conservative coach. Seems likely they'll try to rely more heavily on the veteran for this stretch of games.

It'll be a committee this season in my opinion.

So, from the Sleeper app:

Coach Matt Rhule said the Panthers need to find a way to get Anderson the ball.


We still bailing on Anderson?

Could the #Titans be without their top two WRs this Sunday?

WR Julio Jones is getting treatment on a leg injury, and his status vs the #Jets is up in the air, sources tell me and @TomPelissero.

AJ Brown also may miss a week or two with a hamstring injury.

Thoughts on Bateman? Think he can be their #1 and fantasy relevant or just another WR on an offense with too many mouths to feed and low passing volume?

Thinking about picking him up in a 14-teamer cuz my WRs are terrible.

Lamar and Andrews are the only Raven offensive players I’d care about

I've been thinking about Bateman, but after getting so excited about picking up Ty'son, I just don't have any interest in another player that's not even worth a flex play.

I drafted Bateman last round to put him on IR. Hoping he becomes something (deep league PPR, 3 WR)

There just hasn’t been any consistency with pass catchers or RBs for that matter in BAL. One week Andrews or Brown with go off, then the next they catch 2 for 14. Just enticing enough to keep you interested in trotting em out there. TE is thin enough to trot Andrews out there every week. Just one of those situations I don’t mess with.

On top of being a rookie WR playing behind Watkins and Brown

Sounds like Ravens held out Lamar Jackson from practice just for general soreness. He took a few big shots Sunday against the Lions.

Vikings RB Dalvin Cook (ankle) LB Anthony Barr (knee) CB Harrison Hand (hamstring) return to practice. WR Adam Thielen WR Ihmir Smith-Marsette (toe) TE Tyler Conklin and CB Mac Alexander are not practicing.

Doubtful:

Jaguars kicker Josh Lambo has been ruled out for Thursday’s game due to personal reasons.

Jags signed Matthew Wright to their practice squad this week and he will likely be elevated to fill that role.

Sean McVay says they will continue to be careful with RB Darrell Henderson (ribs) this week, but he may be able to practice and may be available Sunday vs Arizona (added he is not 100% on that).

Yeah why not? Baltimore is a bit more pass heavy than usual (still middle of the pack) and Lamar is on pace to throw for the most yards of his career.

Bateman was supposed to be the alpha before he got hurt and we’re already seeing brown capable of throwing up spike weeks
