DEZ BRYANT
Before CeeDee Lamb continues adding to legacy of No. 88, he’ll face Dez Bryant in Baltimore CeeDee Lamb was a fan growing up. Did he ever think about wearing the same number as Dez Bryant? Not really. He sure didn’t think he’d get t...
Unproductive in Week 13 Bryant failed to haul in either of his two targets Wednesday in the Ravens' 19-14 loss to the Steelers.
Impact Unsurprisingly, the struggling Baltimore passing game didn't get on track with Robert Griffin and Trace McSorley stepping in at quarterback for Lamar Jackson, who was one of several Ravens ruled out for Week 12 following a positive COVID/19 test. Thanks in part due to wideout Willie Snead's placement on reserve/COVID-19 list, Bryant saw his biggest snap share (59 percent) of his three games with Baltimore, but the unfavorable quarterback situation and the tough matchup contributed to Marquise Brown (four catches, 85 yards and a touchdown) turning in the only useful outing among the team's pass-catching options. Bryant's outlook will improve a bit if Jackson is able to play Week 13 versus the Cowboys, but the Ravens' run-heavy approach will still cap the 32-year-old's overall fantasy upside.

Signed to active roster Bryant was signed to the Ravens' active roster Saturday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Impact This isn't surprising considering Bryant piled together four receptions Sunday against the Titans while seeing 54 percent of the team's offensive snaps. Bryant may have to wait to play his next game, however, as the Ravens' matchup against the Steelers could be delayed past the Tuesday date after multiple reported positive COVID-19 tests from both sides.

Heading back to practice squad Bryant reverted to the Ravens' practice squad Monday, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Impact Bryant notched his first catch in a Ravens' uniform Sunday, as he recorded four receptions for 28 yards on 35 offensive snaps. The veteran wideout can be signed by any team now that he has returned to the practice squad. However, with Thursday's Thanksgiving showdown with the Steelers quickly approaching, Bryant could find himself back on Baltimore's active roster sooner rather than later.

Promoted for Week 11 Bryant was promoted to the Ravens' active roster from the practice squad Saturday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Impact The veteran wideout saw his first game action since 2017 in Week 9 and played a pair of offensive snaps. Bryant is unlikely to have a significant role in the passing game while Baltimore's top options remain in good health.

Could be called up Week 11 Coach John Harbaugh said Friday that Bryant is an option to be elevated from the practice squad for Sunday's game against the Titans, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Impact Bryant played in his first game since 2017 in Week 9 against the Colts, logging two targetless snaps on offense. The Ravens may provide the 32-year-old receiver another opportunity in their offense, although it's tough to see a path to meaningful reps behind Marquise Brown, Willie Snead, Miles Boykin and Devin Duvernay.
