Week 5 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2022 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

A month of the NFL season is in the books, but the streamer game at the kicker position in fantasy football will continue all season.

Justice Hill Expected To Miss Time

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill (hamstring) is expected to be sidelined for an unknown amount of time, according to head coach Jim Harbaugh. The team doesn't believe it's a serious injury, but they haven't given a timetable for his return. It's a hamstring injury and those do have a tendency to linger. Fantasy managers […]

Is Hayden Hurst A Good Fantasy Football Pickup for Week 5? Waiver Wire Outlook

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Hayden Hurst had fantasy sleeper status heading into the 2022 season, but after drawing 21 targets through four weeks, he's becoming a trendy tight end waiver add. The tight end position is always a tricky one to navigate and the options are once again scarce in 2022. Fantasy managers without big-name […]

Rashod Bateman Dealing With Foot Injury

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that wide receiver Rashod Bateman (foot) was dealing with a foot injury in the second half of the Week 4 loss to the Buffalo Bills, which is why he was not on the field in the fourth quarter. The Ravens are listing Bateman as day-to-day for now, so […]

Gus Edwards Designated To Return Off PUP

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards (knee) will begin practice as soon as he's been designated to return off the NFL's Physically Unable to Perform list. Edwards tore his ACL around the same time J.K. Dobbins did but has yet to return to game action this season. When Edwards returns, he'll be on the fantasy […]

Biggest Week 4 Busts: Fantasy Football Reactions for Mark Andrews, James Robinson, Jaylen Waddle, Amari Cooper, Drake London

The fourth NFL Sunday of the 2022 season has come and gone. Hopefully, you woke up on Monday morning feeling very good about how your week went. However, this week's slate of games was certainly stress-inducing for many fantasy football managers. Part of that stress was caused by a group of players who drastically underachieved […]

Jimmy Smith Hangs Up His Cleats

Long-time Baltimore Ravens standout cornerback Jimmy Smith is retiring on Monday after 11 seasons with the team, the Ravens announced. Smith was originally drafted by Baltimore in the first round (27th overall) in 2011 out of the University of Colorado, and he spent all 11 seasons of his NFL career with the Ravens. In total, […]

Mark Andrews Disappears In Week 4

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews finished with two catches for 15 yards during the loss to the Bills on Sunday. Andrews had a combined 17 catches for 193 yards and three touchdowns in the previous two weeks entering this one. However, the rain made it difficult to get things done, so fantasy managers shouldn't […]

Rashod Bateman Fizzles In Loss To Buffalo

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman had only three catches for 17 yards during the Week 4 loss to Buffalo. In all fairness, the weather wasn't the best, as the wet conditions made things difficult for everyone involved. The 22-year-old will likely have some more uneventful fantasy outings this season. However, Bateman remains a lethal […]

Devin Duvernay Leads Ravens In Receiving On Sunday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Devin Duvernay had four catches for a team-high 51 yards during the loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 4. Although the wideout didn't find the end zone, he still was more productive than Mark Andrews and Rashod Bateman, who combined for only five receptions for 32 yards. That said, Duvernay […]

Justin Tucker Nails Both Kicks In Week 4

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker nailed both of his field goals during the loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 4. He also made both of his extra-point attempts. Even in the rain, the veteran still looked good, especially since both field goal attempts were from beyond the 42-yard mark. Tucker remains arguably the best […]

Ravens Defense Has A Rough Afternoon Against The Bills

The Ravens defense surrendered 23 points to the Bills offense in Week 4, its second lowest total of the season. The unit also kept Josh Allen in check on the passing end, holding the signal-caller to 213 yards on 19-for-36 passing and a touchdown while picking up an interception. In all fairness, the soggy weather […]

J.K. Dobbins Scores Twice In Week 4

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins exploded during the loss to the Bills on Sunday, finishing with 41 yards off 13 carries while adding four catches for 22 yards. Even better, the 23-year-old scored twice, with both trips to the end zone occurring in the first quarter. Dobbins was more involved in Week 4 than […]

Justice Hill Finishes With 45 Yards In Loss

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill (hamstring) finished with 45 yards off eight carries during the 23-20 loss to the Bills on Sunday. He also added two catches for 12 yards. Despite Hill's involvement, J.K. Dobbins had a better showing, compiling 41 yards off 13 touches and amassing two total touchdowns. Hill now has 105 yards […]

Lamar Jackson Cools Off In Week 4

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson finished with 144 yards and a touchdown off 20-for-29 passing during the loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 4. The signal-caller also threw two interceptions, although he made up for it by accruing 73 yards off 11 carries. Weather conditions certainly didn't help Jackson on Sunday, as he had […]

Justice Hill Questionable To Return Sunday

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill (hamstring) is questionable to return against the Buffalo Bills in Week 4. He totaled 45 rushing yards and 12 receiving yards before exiting. Mike Davis should serve as J.K. Dobbins' backup for the duration of Hill's absence.

Kenyan Drake, Ronnie Stanley Inactive Against Bills

Baltimore Ravens running back Kenyan Drake and left tackle Ronnie Stanley (ankle) are both inactive for Week 4 against the Buffalo Bills. With J.K. Dobbins playing in his second straight game, Drake will be a healthy scratch for the second straight week. Stanley is still recovering from season-ending ankle surgery he had last year and […]
