Owings Mills, Md. — Baltimore receiver Rashod Bateman is out for the season after deciding to have surgery on his injured foot.
Coach John Harbaugh announced Thursday that Bateman opted for Lisfranc surgery after consulting with his family and agent.
“We support him on that. We understand what he's doing,” Harbaugh said. “He'll move forward with it. I think Rashod is a great guy. He really wants to be out there. He wants to play.”
The Ravens drafted Bateman in the first round last year, but his rookie season was delayed by a groin injury.
