The Baltimore Ravens are in a desperate situation as they attempt to turn around their bad start to the season. Forecasted as a favorite to win the AFC North, Baltimore is 1-4 and will be in a near must-win game this Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. Ravens tight end Crockett Gillmore looked like a promising asset to the team before suffering a calf injury.
Gillmore has missed the last two games and is questionable this week. Baltimore is already struggling enough as it is. Wide receiver Steve Smith Sr. is expected to be limited as he fights through a back injury. Running back Justin Forsett is also dealing with an ankle issue. Things are dire for Joe Flacco and the Ravens. Gillmore would be utilized very well in his first game back if he can play on Sunday.
The tight end depth in fantasy football is more depressing than a Drake love song. There’s Rob Gronkowski and there’s everyone else. Every other tight end is a risky option with boom or bust potential each week. Teams looking to make a change should keep an eye on Gillmore’s status. Flacco loves throwing to the tight end and has limited options in Baltimore. Gillmore could become a steal that turns around your team’s future at the position.
