The Baltimore Ravens will be relying on many different young contributors to step up at the wide receiver position after the trade of Marquise Brown. One of those players is Rashod Bateman, who is entering his second season in the NFL after having a solid rookie year.
After one of Baltimore’s mandatory minicamp practices, Ravens tight end Mark Andrews was asked about what he’s seen out of Bateman’s route running. The tight end discussed how the wideout is running great, mentioning his burst of speed as well as how he’s getting open at the line.
“He’s running great routes. A lot of his releases, and everything … He’s getting open at the line super, super quick. And then, he’s got a burst of speed that people don’t really talk about. And again, [in his] second year – he’s a guy that’s just going to get better, better, and better. The sky is the limit for him.”
