Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Tylan Wallace is battling for a roster spot this offseason, according to Jeff Zrebiec of the Athletic. The 25-year-old faced a similar set of circumstances last year, but he turned in a quality training camp and ultimately remained on the 53-man roster. Wallace will need to impress on special teams to earn the last chair on the wide receiver depth chart, and the absence of standout returner Deonte Harty from OTAs has allowed him to show what he can do. The 2021 fourth-round pick has just seven receptions for 67 yards to his name in 37 career games, but a 76-yard punt return for a touchdown last year showed he can make an impact in other aspects of the game.
Tylan Wallace, Rock Ya-Sin Out For AFC Championship
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Tylan Wallace (knee) and cornerback Rock Ya-Sin (knee) have both officially been ruled out for the AFC Championship game on Sunday against the visiting Kansas City Chiefs. The good news for the Ravens defense is that cornerback Marlon Humphrey (calf), who had missed the last two games, is active as the Ravens try to advance to the Super Bowl. Wallace has been dealing with a knee injury since Week 17 of the regular season and will miss a second straight playoff game as a result. The 24-year-old had only one catch all year for 11 yards on two targets, so he wouldn't have factored into the offensive game plan if he were active. Ya-Sin has been a valuable backup cornerback for the Ravens defense this year, but he won't be on the field on Sunday despite putting in a full practice on Friday.
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Tylan Wallace (knee) is listed as questionable for the AFC Championship on Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs. Wallace missed practice on Wednesday and was a limited participant on Thursday and Friday, giving him a chance to suit up this weekend. The 24-year-old is primarily a contributor for the Ravens on special teams, so if he is able to play against the Chiefs, he won't be anywhere near the fantasy radar for DFS lineups. During the 2023 regular season, Wallace had just one catch for 11 yards on two targets. Wallace did not play in last week's Divisional Round win over the Houston Texans.
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Tylan Wallace (knee) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice session. This looks to be a step in the right direction after Wallace sat out during last weekend's win over the Houston Texans. The limited session gives us hope that Wallace will be able to play against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. The 24-year-old doesn't bring much to the table in the receiving game but is a valuable player on special teams.
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Tylan Wallace (knee) is not practicing on Wednesday to begin prep for the AFC Championship Game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Wallace was held out of practice last week due to a knee injury and did not suit up for the Divisional Round win over the Houston Texans. However, Devin Duvernay was activated from the Injured Reserve list and handled return duties for Baltimore. With Duvernay back, Wallace's role would be minor if he is active on Sunday, so he's not on the fantasy radar, and his presence in the lineup would not affect any other Ravens' pass-catchers.
Devin Duvernay Questionable, Tylan Wallace Ruled Out
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Devin Duvernay (back) practiced in full all week but is still questionable to play in Saturday's Divisional Round playoff game against the Houston Texans. Meanwhile, fellow wideout Tylan Wallace (knee) missed practice all week and has been ruled out. Duvernay has not played since injuring his back in Week 14. He remains on Injured Reserve, so the Ravens will need to officially activate him on Friday if they want to have him active against the Texans. Before his injury, the 26-year-old had just four catches for 18 yards and no touchdowns on nine targets in 13 games. If Duvernay is activated and cleared, he's much more likely to make an impact for Baltimore as a returner on special teams.
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Tylan Wallace (knee) is not practicing on Wednesday after missing the team's first practice of the week on Tuesday. The 24-year-old is dealing with a knee injury. Although he is not a contributor on offense, he is the lead kick and punt returner as long as Devin Duvernay (back) is on Injured Reserve. Fortunately, Duvernay practiced in full on Tuesday and is on the cusp of being activated to the 53-man roster. Neither player is worth any consideration in DFS lineups, but ball security in the return game could become an issue if neither can suit up.
Devin Duvernay Practicing In Full, Tylan Wallace Out
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Devin Duvernay (back) was a full practice participant on Tuesday, while fellow wideout Tylan Wallace (knee) was listed as a DNP. Duvernay hasn't played since Week 14 and is still technically on Injured Reserve, although he could be activated before Saturday's Divisional Round game against the Houston Texans if he's able to put in a full week of full practices without suffering any setbacks. The 26-year-old had just four catches for 18 yards in 13 games during the regular season before getting hurt, so he won't be on the fantasy radar if he's active against Houston. Wallace caught his only pass of the year for a gain of 11 yards in the Week 18 regular season finale, and it's a bad sign he's not practicing after a week off in the wild-card round.
Keaton Mitchell, Tylan Wallace Inactive For Week 8
Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell (hamstring) and wide receiver Tylan Wallace (hamstring) are inactive for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. Both players had been listed as questionable. Mitchell, a rookie, has played in two games this season, though his first offensive snaps didn't come until last week. In his absence, Owen Wright will operate as Baltimore's No. 3 running back. Wallace, meanwhile, was activated from IR on Saturday but won't return to game action quite yet.
Unless there are injuries in front of them in training camp and the preseason, Baltimore Ravens wide receivers James Proche II and Tylan Wallace might be competing for just one spot on the final roster heading into the regular season this fall. The Ravens made it a point to give quarterback Lamar Jackson more receiving help this offseason by adding Odell Beckham Jr. and Nelson Agholor in free agency and rookie Zay Flowers in the draft, so there will be more competition in the receiver room this summer. Wallace missed nine games in 2022 with a hamstring injury and finished with four catches for 33 yards on seven targets. The former fourth-rounder won't be anything more than the WR6 for the Ravens if he makes the final roster in his third NFL season.
