Ravens' Rashod Bateman arrested on charges of family violence stemming from June incident in Georgia

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman was hit with multiple charges, highlighted by family violence because of a June incident in Bateman's home state of Georgia.

Bateman was arrested on June 3 on misdemeanor charges of criminal property damage, reckless conduct and battery, per official booking documents from the Walton County Sheriff's Office. The Ravens issued the following statement to WJZ about the incident, via CBS News: "We are aware of the situation involving Rashod and have been in direct communication with him. We notified the league office and have been cooperating throughout the process," Chad Steele, Sr., Vice President of Communications, Ravens, said. As this is a pending legal matter, we will not have further comment."

Bateman totaled a career-low 224 yards receiving in 2025 in addition to two receiving touchdowns on 19 catches. The 26-year-old has racked up 157 catches for 2,147 yards receiving and 15 receiving touchdowns in five NFL seasons, all with Baltimore, after being selected 27th overall in the 2021 NFL Draft out of Minnesota. Bateman re-signed with the Ravens on a three-year, $36.75 million extension with $16.5 million fully guaranteed at signing in June of 2025.
