ANDY ISABELLA NEWS

Promoted to roster The Ravens elevated Isabella from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Saturday's matchup with Atlanta, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

Impact The 2019 second-round pick isn't likely to be a starter but could get some snaps given that Baltimore's other options at receiver are Demarcus Robinson, DeSean Jackson, James Proche and Sammy Watkins. The team put Devin Duvernay (foot) on injured reserve this week, creating an opportunity for someone -- perhaps Isabella -- to step up down the stretch this year. None of the bunch can be relied on for Week 16 fantasy, especially with Tyler Huntley starting under center instead of Lamar Jackson (shoulder).

Finally joins Ravens Isabella signed with the Ravens' practice squad Monday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Impact Isabella was believed to have signed with the Ravens' practice squad Wednesday, however, it was reported Saturday that no deal was reached. The move now appears to be official. In a corresponding move, the team cut fellow wide receiver Bailey Gaither from the practice squad. .

Remains free agent Isabella has not been signed by the Ravens and remains a free agent ahead of Week 5, Howard Balzer of SI.com reports.

Impact With Rashod Bateman's (ankle) status for Week 5 unclear, it was reported that the Ravens were in line to sign Isabella to their practice squad, but it appears that deal was never completed. The extent of the situation remains unclear, but the 2019 second-round pick, who was recently waived by the Cardinals, remains a free agent. Isabella caught 33 of 53 targets for 447 yards and three touchdowns across 39 appearances for Arizona.

Joining Baltimore The Ravens will sign Isabella to their practice squad, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.

Impact Isabella joins a receiving corps that lacks clarity behind top wideout Rashod Bateman. And Bateman didn't practice Wednesday due to a foot issue, so Isabella could make an impact as soon as this Sunday against the Bengals, assuming the team elevates him. In parts of four seasons as a Cardinal before he was waived Tuesday, Isabella, a 2019 second-round pick, recorded 33 catches (on 53 targets) for 447 yards and three touchdowns in 39 appearances.

One more catch in Week 3 Isabella gathered in one of two targets for 11 yards during Sunday's 20-12 loss to the Rams.

Impact Isabella came out of the season opener with a back injury that sidelined him Week 2. He managed full practices during Week 3 prep and was able to log 39 percent of the offensive snaps in a receiving corps that was without DeAndre Hopkins (suspension), Antoine Wesley (hip, IR) and Rondale Moore (hamstring), while A.J. Green (knee) made an early departure Sunday. There's a chance Moore and Green are available this Sunday at Carolina, but if not, Isabella again could factor into the Cardinals' passing game behind Marquise Brown, Zach Ertz and Greg Dortch.

Logs full practice Wednesday Isabella (back) practiced in full Wednesday, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Isabella emerged from the season opener with a back injury that didn't allow him to practice last week and sidelined him for this past Sunday's game at Las Vegas. With an uncapped session under his belt to kick off Week 3 prep, he's in line to return to action against the Rams this Sunday, when the Cardinals again could be without Rondale Moore (hamstring), in addition to the suspended DeAndre Hopkins and Antoine Wesley (hip).

SEPTEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Out this week Isabella (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Rondale Moore (hamstring) is also out, along with suspended DeAndre Hopkins, leaving Marquise Brown, A.J. Green and Greg Dortch as the unquestioned top three at WR this weekend. Dortch saw a team-high nine targets in the opener and should see some looks again, but Brown is the downfield threat and de facto No. 1 receiver.

Not expected to play this week Isabella (back) isn't expected to play Sunday against the Raiders, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

Impact Isabella didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday due to his back strain, and it appears as though he'll be held off the field in Week 2. However, his injury isn't considered a long-term issue, so it's possible that he returns for the Cardinals' Week 3 matchup against the Rams on Sept. 25. Isabella's likely absence will leave Arizona particularly shorthanded at wide receiver since Rondale Moore (hamstring) is also expected to be sidelined.

Absent again Thursday Isabella (back) is not practicing Thursday, Jose M. Romero of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Isabella could be facing increased opportunities if he manages to suit up against the Raiders in Week 2, with Rondale Moore (hamstring) not practicing and DeAndre Hopkins (suspension) still absent. However, unless he can significantly upgrade his status Friday, it looks like Isabella is trending in the wrong direction.

No practice reps Wednesday Isabella (back) didn't practice Wednesday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact In a Cardinals receiving corps without DeAndre Hopkins (suspension), Antoine Wesley (hip, IR) and Rondale Moore (hamstring) in Sunday's season opener against the Chiefs, Isabella logged 21 of 65 (32 percent) of the offensive snaps on his way to one catch (on three targets) for 10 yards. Now, Isabella is dealing with an injury himself, potentially threatening his availability for Week 2 action in Las Vegas.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with back issue Isabella is dealing with a back injury ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Raiders, Howard Balzer of SI.com reports.

Impact Isabella caught one of three targets for 10 yards during Sunday's loss to the Chiefs and apparently picked up a back injury as well. His status for Week 2 remains unclear, but Wednesday's official injury report should provide further clarity on his availability for Sunday's matchup against Las Vegas.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Nabs one catch in Week 1 Isabella caught one of three targets for 10 yards during Sunday's 44-21 loss to the Chiefs.

Impact Isabella is getting a chance early on this season with DeAndre Hopkins serving a six-game suspension and Rondale Moore sitting out Week 1 due to a hamstring injury. Despite getting the fourth-most offensive snaps among Cards wide receivers, though, Isabella didn't do much with the 32-percent share behind Marquise Brown, Greg Dortch and A.J. Green. It's unclear if Moore will be back for Week 2 action, but if he's a DNP again Sunday at Las Vegas, Isabella at least should have another opportunity for looks from Kyler Murray.

Leading receiver Friday Isabella caught four of seven targets for a team-high 57 yards in Friday's preseason game against the Bengals.

Impact The Cardinals' wide receiver depth could be tested to begin the season with DeAndre Hopkins suspended and Marquise Brown (hamstring) and Antoine Wesley (hip) both banged up, although Brown at least seems likely to be ready for Week 1. That could be enough to give Isabella, a second-round pick in 2019 who has been a bust in the NFL, one more chance to carve out a role in Arizona. He remains firmly behind A.J. Green and Rondale Moore -- both of whom got the night off along with the other projected starters -- and Greg Dortch posted nearly identical numbers to Isabella in Friday's game, so the speedster out of UMass has more work to do in training camp to even claim the No. 4 spot on the depth chart.
