Full participant Wednesday
Boykin (oblique) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Boykin missed the Steelers' win over the Colts on Monday night due to an oblique injury that knocked him out of the team's Week 12 loss. However, he appears to have moved past the issue and should be full go heading into Sunday's showdown with the Falcons. The fourth-year wideout has caught just one of two targets for 11 yards across 10 appearances this season and has mostly operated on special teams.

Out Monday
Boykin (oblique) has been ruled inactive ahead of Monday's game against the Colts.
Analysis: Boykin was forced out with an oblique injury during last week's loss to the Bengals, and he only logged two limited practices ahead of Monday night's game. The 26-year-old has collected one of his two targets for 11 yards in 2022, though he'll now miss his first game of the season. With Boykin out, Diontae Johnson, George Pickens, Steven Sims, Gunner Olszewski and Cody White will operate as the Steelers' available wideouts Week 12.

Questionable for Monday
Boykin (oblique) is listed as questionable for Monday's game at Indianapolis, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: After opening the week with a DNP on Thursday, Boykin managed back-to-back limited sessions as he deals with an oblique injury stemming from last Sunday's loss to the Bengals. The Steelers don't have to make any signings or elevations to bolster the receiving corps until Monday, so his status is entirely up in the air for Week 12.

Limited participant Friday
Boykin (oblique) practiced in a limited fashion Friday, Chris Halicke of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.
Analysis: Boykin sustained an oblique injury during Sunday's loss to the Bengals and was unable to suit up during the first practice of Week 12 on Thursday. It's an encouraging sign to see the wide receiver back as a limited participant during Friday's session, though his status for Monday's game against Indianapolis is still up in the air. Boykin has accumulated just one reception while primarily playing on special teams over the first 10 games of the season, and he'll have one more opportunity to…read more

Absent from practice
Boykin (oblique) didn't practice Thursday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: Boykin sustained an oblique injury Sunday against the Bengals, and it was discouraging to see him absent from practice Thursday. If he hopes to suit up Monday against Indianapolis, he'll likely need to practice in some capacity later in the week.

Leaves with injury
Boykin exited Sunday's game against the Bengals early with an oblique injury, Alan Saunders of PittsburghSportsNow.com reports.
Analysis: Boykin's current absence will leave the Steelers light on depth at wide receiver. He's considered questionable to return.

Limited production Sunday
Boykin secured his lone target for 11 yards during the Steelers' 38-3 loss to the Bills on Sunday.
Analysis: Although the Steelers attempted plenty of passes during Sunday's blowout loss, Boykin's playing time remained limited. He played mainly on special teams and was on the field for just five of the team's offensive snaps. As long as the Steelers' other receivers remain healthy, Boykin is unlikely to have a fantasy-relevant role in the team's offense.

Targeted once in opener
Boykin failed to secure his lone target during Sunday's 23-20 overtime win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Boykin had limited production during his final season with the Ravens in 2021, securing his lone target for six yards over eight appearances. While he drew a target during his Steelers debut Sunday, he was on the field for just 13 percent of the team's offensive snaps and played mainly on special teams. As long as the Steelers' other pass catchers remain healthy, it seems unlikely Boykin will be a reliable fantasy option.

Quiet against Jaguars
Boykin (ribs) secured his lone target for nine yards during the Steelers' 16-15 preseason win over the Jaguars on Saturday.
Analysis: Boykin dealt with a hip injury over the last week, but the issue didn't prevent him from playing during Pittsburgh's second preseason matchup. However, he was on the field for just 14 percent of the team's offensive snaps after playing 41 percent during the preseason opener. The 2019 third-rounder will have one more chance to make an impact during the preseason Sunday against the Lions.

Doesn't practice Monday
Boykin didn't practice Monday due to a rib injury, Joe Rutter of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.
Analysis: Boykin was on the field for 41 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps during Saturday's preseason opener against the Seahawks, and he secured two of three targets for 17 yards. However, he apparently sustained a rib injury that kept him off the field Monday. It's not yet clear whether he'll be available for the team's preseason tilt against Jacksonville this Saturday. Boykin could be on the roster bubble ahead of the regular season since George Pickens has made a strong impact during training…read more

Picked up by Steelers
Boykin was claimed off waivers by the Steelers on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The wideout will remain in the AFC North for the time being after he was waived by the Ravens on Monday. Boykin played 32 offensive snaps and was targeted just once in 2021 after starting the season on injured reserve due to a hamstring issue, going on to miss additional time while dealing with various other injuries. He saw 144 special-teams snaps over eight games, however, and could carve out a role for himself with Pittsburgh.

Cut by Baltimore
The Ravens waived Boykin on Monday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Boykin had just one season with more than 300 yards at Notre Dame, yet ended up a third-round pick in the 2019 Draft on the strength of a 4.42-second 40-yard dash and 43.5-inch vertical (at 6-foot-4, 220 pounds). He then started 24 of 32 games his first two seasons in Baltimore, averaging 14.5 yards per contest while primarily serving as a blocker in a run-heavy offense. Boykin does have seven TDs among his 32 career receptions, but he finished 2021 without a catch in eight games and now…read more

Difficult 2021 season
Boykin finished the 2021 season with one catch for six yards on one target in eight games.
Analysis: The Notre Dame product's third season in Baltimore was an all-around disappointment. He opened the season on injured reserve with a hamstring injury before a finger injury sidelined him late in the year. When healthy, Boykin logged a total of 32 offensive snaps and played a career-high 144 special-teams snaps. Meanwhile, Baltimore seemed to find its receiving corps of the future with Marquise Brown, Rashod Bateman and Devin Duvernay as the primary wideouts. Boykin may have even been surpassed…read more

Healthy scratch against Rams
Boykin (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams.
Analysis: Boykin has been active for the Ravens' last two games, though he played only a combined two offensive snaps in that span. With James Proche (coach's decision) also inactive, Sammy Watkins should move closer to a full-time role on offense. Meanwhile, Tylan Wallace will be a key special teams contributor.

Clear of finger issue
Boykin (finger) was a full practice participant Wednesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Boykin sat out the past four games with the finger injury, but he had no limitations at Wednesday's practice. The 25-year-old has one catch for six yards in five games this season and is unlikely to play a significant role in Baltimore's passing game now that he's healthy.

Won't play Sunday
Boykin (finger) is out Sunday against the Browns, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Boykin will miss his fourth straight game with the injury. The third-year receiver's absence will lead to more potential opportunity for depth wideouts, Tylan Wallace and James Proche.

Unlikely to play Sunday
Boykin (finger) is doubtful for Sunday's contest against the Browns.
Analysis: Boykin was limited throughout practice this week, and he is unlikely to play Sunday. The third-year wideout hasn't been available since Week 10, so if he is sidelined again it shouldn't impact the Ravens' offensive rotations.

Limited in practice
Boykin (finger) was limited in practice Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Analysis: Boykin hasn't played since Week 10 against Miami. He was able to log limited practices last week, so it's hard to say if this is truly progress. The third-year pro will try to return Sunday against the Browns.

Practices in limited fashion
Boykin (finger) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Boykin has missed the past two games, but he's making progress in his recovery, as the depth wideout was unable to practice at all last week. Further updates on Boykin's status should surface throughout the week as the Ravens prepare for Sunday's road tilt in Pittsburgh.

Works out Wednesday
Boykin (finger) worked off to the side with a trainer during Wednesday's practice session, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Boykin missed Sunday's win over the Bears due to a finger injury. Although he was unable to practice in a full capacity Wednesday, it was encouraging to see him working out. Even if the 2019 third-rounder is cleared to return in Week 12, he's unlikely to have a significant fantasy impact.

Out with finger injury
Boykin (finger) won't play Sunday against the Bears.
Analysis: Boykin popped up on the Ravens' Week 11 injury report Friday and will now sit out at least one game with his finger injury. The absence of the 2019 third-rounder is of more import to his team's wideout depth than it is to fantasy managers, however, given that Boykin has just one catch in five games this season.

Makes first catch of 2021
Boykin caught his lone target for six yards Sunday against the Chargers.
Analysis: This was Boykin's second game since returning from injury, and though he was more involved on offense than he was in his debut, he was hardly impactful. He played just four snaps and was targeted once. Baltimore got deeper at receiver this past week with Rashod Bateman's debut, so playing time may continue to be hard to come by for Boykin.

No playing time on offense
Boykin played zero offensive snaps and 15 special teams snaps in Monday's win over the Colts.
Analysis: Though this was Boykin's 2021 debut, he still didn't factor into the mix on offense. He got plenty of usage on special teams, though. It's particularly discouraging for Boykin that he didn't play on offense despite Sammy Watkins getting hurt during the game. Boykin may be looking at a role primarily on special teams going forward and his role on offense figures to be limited even if he starts getting involved in Week 6 against the Chargers.

Activated for Week 5
The Ravens activated Boykin (hamstring) from injured reserve ahead of Monday's game against the Colts, Ryan Mink of Baltimore's official site reports.
Analysis: Boykin presumably will suit up Monday for his season debut, after the hamstring injury he suffered in an Aug. 2 training camp practice sidelined him for the entire preseason and the Ravens' first four regular-season contests. Though he looks healthy again after practicing for the previous two weeks, Boykin could be eased back into the Ravens' receiving corps with a limited role Monday. He was a bit contributor in the passing attack while playing a full 16-game slate in 2020, notching 19…read more

Expected to debut Monday
Boykin (hamstring) is expected to make his 2021 debut in Monday's game against the Colts, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Although fellow receiver Rashod Bateman (groin) hasn't been cleared to return from injured reserve for Week 5, Boykin likely will be available to make his first appearance of the season. The 2019 third-rounder recorded 19 receptions for 266 yards and four touchdowns last season but could see a decreased role in 2021 with Bateman and Sammy Watkins in the fold.

Still not available yet
Boykin (hamstring) was not activated from injured reserve and will miss Sunday's contest against the Broncos, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.
Analysis: It's unclear whether Boykin made the trip to Denver like his fellow injured reserve teammate, Rashod Bateman (groin), but in any case it sounds like both wideouts are likely close to making their respective 2021 debuts. Boykin has been a disappointment since joining the Ravens back in 2019 and probably will see a decreased role compared to years past with the emergence of Devin Duvernay coupled with the additions of Sammy Watkins and Bateman.

The Ravens designated Boykin (hamstring) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Ryan Mink of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Boykin and fellow wideout Rashod Bateman (groin) will both rejoin the Ravens for practice this week after the two missed the first three games with their respective injuries. Given that Boykin hasn't logged any on-field work since Aug. 2 due to the hamstring injury, he won't be a lock to play Sunday in Denver, as he may need more than one week of practice before the Ravens are comfortable activating him from IR and adding him to the 53-man roster.

Will practice this week
Coach John Harbaugh said Monday that Boykin (hamstring) will practice this week, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Boykin began the season on IR, so he's eligible to return this week if healthy. The 25-year-old appeared in 16 contests for the Ravens last year and caught 19 passes for 266 yards and four touchdowns. When active, he'll likely compete with James Proche and Devin Duvernay as the No. 3 wideout behind Sammy Watkins and Marquise Brown. Rookie first-round pick Rashod Bateman also is eligible to return off IR this week, but it's unclear how big of a role he'll have in his first season.

Still sidelined
Boykin (hamstring) is not practicing Wednesday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Boykin got some work in on a separate field Wednesday, but a timetable for his return remains undisclosed. Even if Boykin manages to gain clearance in time for the Sept. 13 season opener in Las Vegas, he no longer has a clear path to offensive touches in Baltimore's crowded receiver corps. On the other hand, while rookie first-round pick Rashod Bateman (groin) works his way back to health, Boykin could handle an increased role if available.

Remains absent from practice
Boykin (hamstring) remains sidelined Thursday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Boykin has missed more than three weeks of practice due to a hamstring injury sustained in early August. The 2019 third-round pick already had gotten off to an unremarkable start to training camp before getting injured, and he's facing the toughest competition for offensive snaps of his career. On the other hand, starters Marquise Brown (hamstring), Sammy Watkins (undisclosed) and Rashod Bateman (groin) are all also dealing with injuries.

Sitting out first preseason game
Boykin (hamstring) will not play in Saturday's preseason game against New Orleans, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Boykin has dealt with a hamstring injury since Aug. 2, and that's believed to be the reason he's sitting out Saturday's game. With Sammy Watkins, Rashod Bateman (groin) and Tylan Wallace added at receiver this offseason, Boykin faces competition for a roster spot for the first time in his three-year career.

Leaves practice with injury
Boykin departed Monday's practice early due to a hamstring injury, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Coach John Harbaugh said "we'll have to see" when asked about the severity of Boykin's injury. The 2019 third-round pick already was off to a slow start at training camp, in addition to facing increased competition, so he can ill afford to miss much time. Marquise Brown (hamstring) and Rashod Bateman (undisclosed) are also dealing with injuries, and quarterback Lamar Jackson (COVID-19 list) won't be back on the field until Friday, at the earliest.

Facing increased competition
Boykin is off to a slow start at training camp, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Per Zrebiec, James Proche's strong start is giving him an inside track at a roster spot, and that creates a numbers crunch in terms of how many receivers the Ravens can carry on the regular-season roster. Boykin, who has yet to break out through two seasons, has blocking and special teams ability that makes him an asset. However, he'll need to show more as a pass catcher through the rest of camp to ensure his spot on the roster.

Long touchdown in rout
Boykin had one catch for 43 yards and a touchdown on two targets in Sunday's win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Boykin made the most of his only catch with a season-long 43-yard reception that also set his single-game season high for receiving yards. 2020 wasn't smooth sailing for Boykin as far as his development goes; he went from a rookie season with 13 catches for 198 yards and three touchdowns on 22 targets and 433 snaps to 19 catches for 266 yards and four touchdowns on 33 targets and 546 snaps.

Nabs third touchdown
Boykin had one catch for a four-yard touchdown on two targets Sunday against Jacksonville.
Analysis: Boykin was among three Ravens receivers to play over 50 percent of the snaps Sunday. He answered the bell with an acrobatic catch in the end zone for his third touchdown of the season and second in his last three games. Boykin still isn't drawing much target volume despite seeing his playing time trend back in the right direction. He hasn't had more than three targets in any game since Week 4 against Washington. Boykin and the Ravens host the Giants in Week 16.

Moves off reserve/COVID-19 list
Boykin was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The Ravens will have a relatively healthy receiving corps with Hollywood Brown, Boykin and Dez Bryant all eligible to play Sunday. As a result, it's hard to imagine Boykin seeing another 40-plus offensive snaps like he has in the previous two weeks.

Trending toward playing Sunday
Coach John Harbaugh said Friday that Boykin is "on track" to be activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list for Sunday's game versus the Jaguars, Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Analysis: Wide receivers Marquise Brown and James Proche received the same vote of confidence from Harbaugh. Boykin was listed as a close contact to an infected person, and as long as he continues to test negative, he'll be in the lineup for Sunday's AFC clash. Dez Bryant will also be back in the lineup, so Boykin could see his reps decrease after consecutive games with higher than a 70 percent snap share.

Could still play Sunday
Boykin (undisclosed) could be reinstated from the reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars so long as he continues to test negative for the virus, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Boykin was placed on the list Wednesday, but he reportedly didn't test positive for the virus and was instead deemed a close contact of an infected person or persons. While Boykin thus has a shot of returning to the roster before Sunday, he won't be able to practice all week, which could affect his involvement in the offensive game plan. The second-year pro has just two catches in his last five outing, so even if he's available against Jacksonville, he won't be on the fantasy radar.

Sees one target Monday
Boykin caught his lone target for a 15-yard gain in Monday's win over the Browns.
Analysis: Boykin's snap share has ticked back up in recent weeks -- he played 87 percent of the snaps against the Cowboys in Week 13 and 70 percent of the snaps Monday. However, Boykin drew just four targets between those contests and he rates very low among receivers in air yards per game (21.5) and air yards per snap (0.66). Boykin draws a favorable matchup against the Jaguars on Sunday, but he remains behind a number of other Baltimore pass-catchers in the pecking order for targets.

Boykin secured one of his three targets for a 38-yard touchdown during Tuesday's 34-17 win against Dallas.
Analysis: Boykin helped Baltimore immediately cash in on a Cowboys turnover, corralling his long score exactly one play after Andy Dalton provided rookie Patrick Queen with the first interception of his career. The 38-yard gain alone tied Boykin's single-game season high in receiving, while the score represented the 24-year-old's fifth over 28 NFL appearances.

Catchless in third straight
Boykin wasn't targeted on any of his 18 offensive snaps Wednesday in the Ravens' 19-14 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: For the third week in a row, Boykin failed to draw target while playing no more than a third of the team's snaps. Even with more reps up for grabs with Willie Snead (reserve/COVID-19 list) sitting out, Boykin still ranked a distant fourth in offensive snap share (33 percent) among Baltimore receivers, with Marquise Brown (78 percent), Devin Duvernay (76 percent) and Dez Bryant (59 percent) all comfortably ahead of him. Boykin's opportunities will likely only shrink further once Snead rejoins…read more

No targets Sunday
Boykin wasn't targeted during Sunday's loss to the Titans.
Analysis: The 24-year-old played 15 offensive snaps and wasn't targeted for the second straight contest. Boykin clearly doesn't have an established role in the offense despite catching seven passes for 75 yards over the first two games of the season.

Blanked from box score
Boykin was held without a target on 19 snaps Sunday against the Patriots.
Analysis: The second-year receiver continues to struggle to make an impact. His snap count has fallen precipitously every week since Week 5, and his 29 percent snap share Sunday marked a season-low. Baltimore's offense is dysfunctional of late and has lost some key pieces to injury, which makes it difficult to see a path to fantasy relevance for Boykin when he is playing fewer and fewer snaps every week.

Snap count dips again
Boykin caught his only target for 11 yards during Sunday's 24-10 win over the Colts.
Analysis: Boykin played a season-low 36 percent of snaps Week 9. The second-year pro has yet to account for 40 receiving yards in a game this year, and he hasn't drawn five or more targets since Week 2. Boykin's role may only grow smaller in the weeks to come if the recently signed Dez Bryant stays healthy and proves deserving of more work.

First touchdown of 2020
Boykin caught two of three targets for 20 yards and a touchdown.
Analysis: The second-year receiver made his biggest impact of the season thus far, catching his first touchdown of 2020 to help keep pace with the Steelers early in the ball game. Boykin was otherwise ineffective, and his snap share continued to dip to a new season-low of 40 percent. The Ravens face Indianapolis on the road Sunday.

Minor impact again
Boykin caught one of two targets for 11 yards Sunday against the Eagles.
Analysis: It was another nondescript outing from Boykin, who has yet to go over 40 yards or four catches in any game this season. His playing time the past three weeks has dipped down below a 60 percent snap share in each of those games, and Sunday's percentage was just 45. Meanwhile, rookie Devin Duvernay slowly but surely is playing more snaps each week. The Ravens said in the lead-up to Sunday's game that they were looking to get Boykin more involved, but that certainly wasn't the case. He'll be on a…read more

Good to go Week 6
Boykin (thigh) is active for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
Analysis: Boykin was added to the Ravens' injury report after a thigh issue limited his activity in the team's final practice of the week Friday, but he moved around well enough in pregame warmups to gain clearance. After playing more than two-thirds of the Ravens' offensive snaps in each of the first three games of the season, Boykin lost work to rookie Devin Duvernay in both of the past two contests. Boykin played 54 percent of the snaps Week 4 and 57 percent of the snaps Week 5, logging two of six…read more

Added to injury report
Boykin is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles due to a thigh injury, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Boykin was a new addition to Friday's injury report, as Zrebiec notes, a hint that he could have picked up his thigh issue during practice. The second-year pro was held without a catch on two targets Week 5, and he has yet to surpass 40 receiving yards in a game this season. If Boykin were forced to miss any time, it could provide rookies Devin Duvernay and James Proche additional opportunities to work their way into Baltimore's offense.

No catches Sunday
Boykin was held without a catch on two targets over 36 snaps Sunday against the Bengals.
Analysis: Boykin continues to struggle to find his footing in the passing game. He hasn't seen more than five targets in any game this season and he has just three catches for 36 yards over his last three games. Coach John Harbaugh said during Monday's press conference that the team wants to get Boykin "more involved" according to Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. Even if this is true, Boykin won't see more targets than Marquise Brown or Mark Andrews. Boykin will have a chance to be more involved Sunday…read more

Light production Sunday
Boykin caught two of four targets for 28 yards Sunday against the Football Team.
Analysis: Boykin played a season-low 54 percent of the snaps -- 31 total -- and he would have only had one catch for 13 yards on three targets if not for a 15-yard gain on a fake punt pass from Sam Koch. Earlier in the season, Boykin was at least playing the majority of the snaps on offense. Sunday may be the start of a bad trend for Boykin if his snaps and targets don't tick back up against the Bengals in Week 5, particularly now that rookies like Devin Duvernay and James Proche seem to be working their…read more

One catch on MNF
Boykin hauled in one of two targets for eight receiving yards during Monday's 34-20 loss to Kansas City.
Analysis: Boykin didn't have a prolific night on the stat sheet, but neither did any other member of the Ravens' receiving corps. Marquise Brown led Baltimore wide receivers with 13 yards, while the collective group of Boykin, Brown, Devin Duvernay and Willie Snead only combined for a measly 32 receiving yards. The matchup isn't ideal in Week 4 for Boykin and the Ravens' passing attack, as they face a Washington team that ranks among the league's toughest defenses in terms of both catches (36) and…read more

Four grabs against Texans
Boykin caught four of five targets for 38 yards Sunday against the Texans.
Analysis: Boykin is playing a high percentage of the snaps and has been effective on a per-target basis (8.3 YPT), but he is not being used downfield. He's averaging just 28.0 air yards per game through two weeks, and his average depth of target checks in at 6.2 yards, which is just the seventh percentile among all NFL receivers. That said, Boykin has used his standout athleticism to average 5.3 yards after the catch. Boykin is playing well enough to keep his high snap count but Marquise Brown and Mark…read more

Three grabs in opener
Boykin caught three of his four targets for 37 yards Sunday against the Browns.
Analysis: The second-year wideout was mostly efficient with his targets, but it's the one target he missed that sticks out as he had a ball bounce off his hands in the end zone for what would have been a touchdown. Still, Boykin had the most snaps of any Ravens receiver and saw the second-most targets. Marquise Brown and Mark Andrews remain the primary pass catchers for the Ravens, but there's room in the offense for Boykin to take the next step and become a consistent contributor. Boykin and the Ravens…read more

Making strides in Year 2
Boykin has shown marked improvement during training camp, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Finding a reliable option opposite Marquise Brown has been a major storyline for the Ravens all offseason. Veteran Dez Bryant worked out for the team last week but left without a contract, and it's possible that Boykin's improved play was a factor in Baltimore electing not to sign the three-time Pro Bowler. Boykin had an underwhelming rookie season, drawing just 22 targets while playing fewer snaps than Seth Roberts. Though Boykin was productive when targeted, catching three touchdowns and…read more

Joined by two new receivers
Boykin will face added competition for targets after the Ravens drafted a pair of receivers over the weekend, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The heat was already on Boykin after he underperformed as a rookie, and the Ravens' selections of Devin Duvernay and James Proche means that the team wasn't satisfied with what it had at receiver before the draft. One mark in Boykin's favor is that neither Duvernay or Proche are built to take his spot in three-wide sets as both are projected slot receivers. That said, Boykin is at risk of getting passed over for targets, especially if Duvernay is a quick study. Boykin has a lot to prove this…read more

Facing higher expectations
General manager Eric DeCosta said the Ravens expect Boykin to make a second-year leap, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The 2019 third-round pick started 11 of 16 games as a rookie but was used as a run blocker on about half of his 425 offensive snaps. Boykin finished the regular season with 13 catches for 198 yards and three touchdowns, drawing no more than three targets in any one game until he got seven in a playoff loss to the Titans (three receptions for 26 yards). The 23-year-old could now take over more of the work that went to Seth Roberts in 2019, though there's a good chance the Ravens would replace…read more

Quiet rookie season
Boykin finished his rookie season with 13 catches for 198 yards and three touchdowns on 22 targets.
Analysis: It wasn't the season many envisioned for Boykin, who was taken in the third round in the 2019 NFL Draft and, given the receiving depth chart, seemingly had a path to a major role right away. That role never truly materialized, however, as he never played more than 56 percent of the offensive snaps in any of Baltimore's regular-season games. In fairness, Baltimore's offense is unique and veterans like Seth Roberts likely got the edge on Boykin in terms of playing time thanks to things like…read more

Cathless in win
Boykin was unable to haul in either of his targets during Sunday's 28-10 win over Pittsburgh.
Analysis: The offense was a little off-kilter Sunday as Lamar Jackson and other key starters were rested. Still, Boykin snapped a modest two-game streak with a catch, tied for his longest of the season. As a down-roster receiver in a run-heavy scheme, the rookie doesn't provide too much fantasy value and is a risky option despite Baltimore's success on offense. Following their first-round bye, the team will face the Texans, Bills or Titans. Boykin did not record a reception in games against Houston and…read more

Sees just one target again
Boykin caught his only target for an eight-yard gain in Week 16 against the Browns.
Analysis: The rookie saw his playing time tick back up against the Browns but he still saw just one target for the second straight week. Boykin has caught more than one pass just once since Week 7 and has a total of four catches for 67 yards in those eight games. He is set to play in the regular season finale against the Steelers, where Robert Griffin will take over as the starting quarterback for the resting Lamar Jackson.

Scores on lone target
Boykin caught his lone target for a five-yard touchdown in Thursday's 42-21 win over the Jets.
Analysis: After not being targeted for two straight weeks, Boykin got back in the action Thursday with his first touchdown since Week 4 against the Browns. Boykin is still having a difficult time getting consistent target volume, though, so the score doesn't necessarily portend a role increase in the coming weeks. Seth Roberts, who also caught a touchdown Thursday, seems to have the inside track for snaps ahead of Boykin on the left side of the Ravens offense. Boykin and the Ravens will travel to…read more

Not targeted Sunday
Boykin was not targeted Sunday against the Bills.
Analysis: Sunday marked the second straight week in which Boykin did not draw a single target, and his snap count Sunday was his lowest since the season opener against the Dolphins. Boykin appears to be losing playing time to Seth Roberts at the left outside receiver spot as Roberts has out-snapped the rookie in three of the last four weeks. The Jets will visit Baltimore on Thursday this week, but there's little indication that Boykin will have a major role.

Ready for Week 13
Boykin (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the 49ers.
Analysis: Boykin was considered a game-time decision after being added to the injury report Friday with the ankle injury, but he won't be forced to miss Week 13. The 23-year-old caught two passes for 54 yards in garbage time during last week's win over the Rams, but he was held without a catch over the previous three contests.

Game-time call against 49ers
Boykin (ankle) will be a game-time decision against the 49ers on Sunday, as he'll need to undergo testing in pregame warm-ups before a decision is made on his status, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.
Analysis: Boykin is officially listed as questionable for the game. His 54 yards against the Rams in Week 12 were one shy of Boykin's season-high total, which came against the Seahawks in Week 7. If he's able to suit up, Boykin will look to continue his strong play against the NFC West.

Added to injury report Friday
Boykin was added to the injury report Friday due to an ankle injury, with the Ravens listing him as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Boykin presumably suffered the injury during Thursday's practice, as he wasn't available for Friday's session. A Week 13 absence could free up some snaps for Chris Moore, or the Ravens might just split the work at receiver between Marquise Brown, Willie Snead and Seth Roberts. Regardless, it wouldn't be a huge loss for the offense, as Boykin is averaging 1.6 targets per game.

Goes long in garbage time
Boykin caught both of his targets for 54 yards during Monday's 45-6 win over the Rams.
Analysis: Boykin really got going late in Monday night's game, with the Ravens comfortably ahead and Robert Griffin III in at quarterback. With the Ravens continuing the press the gas pedal on third and long, Griffin lobbed one down the sideline to Boykin for a 39-yard gain. Monday's performance snapped a three-game catchless streak for the rookie. He's flashed big-play potential with an impressive 16.8 yards per catch average, but the Ravens' tight-end focused, run-heavy attack has made opportunities…read more

No catches in third straight game
Boykin was held without a catch on two targets Sunday against the Texans.
Analysis: This marks the third straight week that Boykin has gone without a catch and the fifth time this season overall. He has just three total targets in the last three games and has played in 45 percent or less of the plays in each of those contests. Seth Roberts seems to have leapfrogged Boykin in the pecking order, which leaves the rookie with almost no path to regular targets.

Boykin was not targeted in Sunday's win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Baltimore had just 22 pass attempts, and Boykin only played 21 total snaps. He hasn't caught a pass in his last two games and has just one target in that span. Baltimore has the second-lowest passing play percentage in the league, and Boykin is eighth on the team in target share, giving him a near-impossible path to fantasy relevance in 2019.

Usage falls off
Boykin was held without a catch on one target Sunday against the Patriots.
Analysis: The rookie played just 39 percent of the snaps after playing over half the offensive snaps in each of his previous two games. Boykin had just one target and was held without a catch for a third time this season. It's likely not a coincidence that Boykin's usage went up when fellow rookie Marquise Brown was sidelined and fell back off when Brown returned Sunday. Boykin should continue to see a minor role in the Baltimore passing game now that Brown is healthy.
