Ravens' Bateman Absent from OTAs Due to Personal Matter

Ravens WR Rashod Bateman is not participating in Organized Team Activities due to personal matters, though he has been in the building much of the offseason.

Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman is absent from organized team activities, with offensive coordinator Declan Doyle confirming he's dealing with "personal things." Despite not attending OTAs, Bateman has been in the building for much of the offseason, including the first week when he worked extensively with the coaching staff.

Bateman, who dealt with a high right ankle sprain last season, caught only 19 passes for a career-low 224 yards and two touchdowns in 13 games. The coaching staff expects him to return for training camp. djcc.club
