BALTIMORE — Top Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman will have foot surgery on a Lisfranc injury and miss the rest of the season, coach John Harbaugh said Thursday.
Bateman, who missed the Ravens’ games in Week 5 and Week 6 with a foot sprain, was limited to 13 offensive snaps in last Thursday’s win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Harbaugh said Monday that “there’s a little more there from a strain standpoint,” and that Bateman would miss “a few weeks.” The 2020 first-round draft pick also missed five games as a rookie while recovering from groin surgery.
“It was one of those [situations] where it was up to him,” Harbaugh said. “He and his agent and his family talked it over, and they decided it would be in his best interest to [have surgery], so we support him on that and understand what he’s doing.”
