Caleb Williams has been officially activated for the Bears' game on Sunday, ending his three-game absence due to a hamstring injury
While the Ravens won’t have quarterback Lamar Jackson for Sunday night’s game against the Falcons, they will have their top receiver. Zay Flowers is active for the Week 5 matchup after he was listed as questionable with a foot injury. Flowers was limited in practice all week. The Ravens will also have cornerback Marlon Humphrey, who was listed as questionable with hamstring and calf injuries. But guard Andrew Vorhees (foot) is inactive. Tyler Huntley will start at quarterback with Jackson sidelined. For the Falcons, offensive tackle Jake Matthews (groin), linebacker Divine Deablo (hamstring), and defensive end Samson Ebukam (hamstring) are all active after being listed as questionable. Jackson, Vorhees, outside linebacker Trey Hendrickson, center Cam Jurgens, receiver Elijah Sarratt, and defensive tackle Aeneas Peebles are inactive for the Ravens. Defensive end Za’Darius Smith, linebacker Christian Harris, quarterback Cooper Rush, quarterback Jack Strand, offensive lineman Ethan Onianwa, defensive back Malcolm DeWalt IV, and defensive back Robert Longerbeam are inactive for Atlanta. Rush is the emergency third quarterback
Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers is active for this afternoon’s game against the Cowboys in Brazil. Flowers was questionable to return this week after a limited practice on Friday. He missed last week’s game with his hamstring injury. Flowers caught five passes for 150 yards and a touchdown in the season opener. The Ravens’ inactives are quarterback Joe Fagnano, wide receiver Elijah Sarratt, left tackle Ronnie Stanley (toe), inside linebacker Carl Jones, defensive lineman Aeneas Peebles and safety K’Von Wallace. Fagnano will serve as the emergency, third quarterback. Defensive lineman Nnamdi Madubuike and linebacker Teddye Buchanan will make their 2026 debuts. The Cowboys had already ruled out linebacker DeMarvion Overshown (hamstring), cornerback Cobie Durant (hamstring) and safety Malik Hooker (forearm). Their other inactives are running back Emari Demercado, offensive guard Ajani Cornelius and wide receiver Camden Brown
Ravens rookie wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane is projected to undergo wrist surgery, sidelining him for approximately a month and impacting his early-season fantasy value

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane saw limited action in the team's second preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings on Saturday, finishing the contest with one catch for nine yards on two targets. A third-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, Lane has consistently drawn rave reviews for his work throughout training camp. The 22-year-old played three collegiate seasons at USC, recording 49 catches for 745 yards and four touchdowns across 11 games in 2025. Entering 2026, Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman profile as the top wideouts in Baltimore. However, Lane could be leading a WR3 battle that also includes fellow rookie Elijah Sarratt and 2024 fourth-rounder Devontez Walker. Bateman is also currently dealing with some legal issues regarding an alleged family violence incident. Should he face any sort of league punishment, Lane could move even further up the Ravens' wide receiver depth chart. Entering 2026, Lane profiles as a priority late-round sleeper target for fantasy managers
Rookie receivers Ja’Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt showed promise in their NFL debuts during the Ravens' preseason win over the Eagles
Rookie WR Ja'Kobi Lane is generating significant buzz in Baltimore Ravens training camp, consistently making highlight-reel receptions. He has reportedly secured the WR3 role behind Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman, outperforming fellow rookie Elijah Sarratt. Lane's size and red-zone ability make him an intriguing late-round fantasy pick
Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane had another highlight play in training camp practice on Wednesday, leaping to catch a pass from quarterback Lamar Jackson in the back of the end zone during red-zone drills, according to Jamison Hensley of ESPN. The third-rounder from USC made a fantastic one-handed catch in practice on Tuesday with the starters, and the 6-foot-4 wideout continues to impress the coaching staff this summer. It's definitely notable for fantasy purposes, as the Ravens have a pretty wide-open WR depth chart behind WR1 Zay Flowers. Lane is competing primarily with Devontez Walker and fellow rookie Elijah Sarratt for the WR3 role behind Flowers and veteran Rashod Bateman, but it would not be surprising to see Lane surpass Bateman sooner rather than later as one of the Ravens' top aerial weapons if he continues to look like he has early in camp. Durability could be Lane's biggest hurdle because of his thin build, and he also isn't a big yards-after-the-catch guy. Lane will most likely go undrafted in most standard-sized fantasy leagues, but he could be an intriguing red-zone weapon for the Ravens to begin his NFL career
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane has already shown why the team spent a third-round pick on him. The 6-foot-4 rookie went over Marlon Humphrey for a leaping catch from Lamar Jackson on the second day of camp, a play that matched the contested-catch profile he showed at USC. Lane caught 49 passes for 745 yards and four touchdowns last season after scoring 12 times in 2024. There is real upside here. The immediate role is less certain. Zay Flowers is Baltimore's No. 1 receiver, Rashod Bateman is still projected to start, and Lane is competing with Elijah Sarratt and Devontez Walker for the remaining work. Jesse Minter said there could be major opportunities for at least one of the rookie receivers, not necessarily Lane. RotoBaller ranks him WR94 in PPR leagues and WR17 among rookies. That makes Lane a reasonable final-round swing in deeper redraft formats, but managers in ordinary 12-team leagues can wait for more evidence. Dynasty is different. His size, third-round investment, and red-zone history are worth stashing while Baltimore sorts out the depth chart. Lane offers more long-term appeal than immediate fantasy value

We’re wrapping up the regular season in Silver and Black Pride’s Mendoza Mania series , diving into film breakdowns for each of Fernando Mendoza’s games during his last College Football season, and looking at Indiana’s dominant 56-3 win over in-state rival Purdue. However, this was the Las Vegas Raiders ’ new quarterback’s worst performance of a passer from last year, going eight for 15 (53.3% completions) with 117 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions . The latter is misleading, though. Pro Football Focus had him on the hook for three “ turnover-worthy plays ” at a 17.6 percent rate, his most TWPs and highest rate (by over 12 percent) on the year. Also, the 2026 NFL draft No. 1 pick didn’t account for any “big-time throws” and posted his lowest PFF passing grade (28.3) of the season by more than 20 points against the Boilermakers. So, fair warning, this breakdown is going to be more negative than positive, as it looked like the Heisman Trophy winner was pressing and forced a handful of throws. This was Mendoza’s first pass of the game and, in a way, set a precursor for how the rest of the night went for him. Purdue is playing man coverage and makes no secret about it by showing and staying in Cover 1 pre- and post-snap while both corners are lined up in press coverage. With Indiana in a three-by-one formation, that sets up Elijah Sarratt with a one-on-one matchup that Mendoza clearly likes and wants to take advantage of. However, the cornerback plays soft-shoe press coverage instead of going for the jam at the line of scrimmage and stays in Sarratt’s hip throughout the route, meaning the receiver is never open. Ideally, the quarterback comes off the one-on-one matchup and works the other side of the progression, where the outside receiver and tight end are open. Instead, Mendoza tries to throw a back-shoulder pass to Sarratt and misses too far inside, forcing the receiver to be the defender and prevent the interception. Predetermining and being inaccurate with the throw is a bad combination, and he’s lucky this wasn’t a turnover. While the receiver and route are different here, this play is almost a carbon copy of the previous one. The Boilermakers have the same play call, running Cover 1 with a six-man pressure, while the Hoosiers come out in a three-by-one formation again. Granted, it doesn’t look like this is a predetermined throw/decision by Mendoza, but more of him trying to force the ball into someone who isn’t open. The matchup to watch here is in the slot, where the nickelback does a great job of covering Omar Cooper Jr. on the drag route. The defender knows he has safety help over the top with the single-high coverage. So, once Cooper releases off the line and starts to work across the field, the nickel can undercut the route to get into the passing lane since the free safety is protecting him from being beaten deep. As a result, the receiver isn’t open. But Mendoza throws it anyway and doesn’t get enough air on the ball to place it between the second and third levels of the defense. Instead, the pass goes right to the defender and should have been intercepted if the receiver didn’t play great defense to force the drop. What makes this play more frustrating is that if Mendoza had gotten to his next read, he would have seen the cornerback who was covering Sarratt slip to create an opportunity for a big play. While the pass-rush was coming, he had plenty of time to move on in the progression. This next one is a missed read more than anything. Purdue mixes up their coverage by showing the Cover 1 look they ran in the first two clips with the free safety in the middle of the field pre-snap. However, post-snap, they rotate into Cover 3 with pattern-matching principles in the secondary, where the nickelback in the boundary (bottom of the screen) rotates into the middle deep third and the safety slides over to take the hook-to-curl area. Also, they’re protecting against a deep or intermediate throw by ha [... truncated ...]
Mark Andrews could outperform his current redraft ADP due to his clear path as the Ravens' TE1 and potential for increased passing game opportunities
A third-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane is entering his rookie season with a chance to carve out a role in his team's passing game immediately. Across 11 games at USC in 2025, Lane recorded 49 catches for 745 yards and four touchdowns. The Ravens have a clear WR1 in Zay Flowers, but the team received underwhelming production from current starting outside wideouts Rashod Bateman and Devontez Walker in 2025. Along with fellow rookie Elijah Sarratt, Lane could emerge as a key downfield target for Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson if he performs well in training camp and the preseason. Baltimore also has a new coaching staff in place entering 2026. New play-caller Declan Doyle could look to open up the team's passing game a bit more, which could lead to more fantasy production overall from Ravens wide receivers this season. As the WR95 by current redraft ADP, Lane could be a sleeper name for fantasy managers to target at the end of drafts
