Rashod Bateman faces potential NFL suspension after arrest

Summary

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman may be in jeopardy of an NFL suspension following his arrest on family violence charges. ESPN reported on August 24 that Bateman, whose legal issues could open a spot on the roster, was arrested in June after allegedly attacking his ex's car with their newborn inside. His performance has also declined since signing a three-year, $36.75 million contract, further complicating his status with the team. The Ravens have acknowledged the situation and are in communication with Bateman while cooperating with the league.
