Fowler: Ravens ‘Somewhat Optimistic’ WR Rashod Bateman Will Play Against Steelers

The Baltimore Ravens are already dealing with some issues in their wide receiver room, with Nelson Agholor ruled out on Friday. Still, it could be a lot worse if former first-round WR Rashod Bateman is unable to go.

He was limited with an ankle injury on Wednesday before appearing on the injury report with a foot injury on Thursday. He was unable to practice and was labeled questionable for the game. Bateman was then seen wearing a walking boot after practice, which was a dubious sign of his availability.

According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, Bateman’s outlook for today’s game might be better than it seemed.
