Observations<\/strong><\/p>\n Major offensive concerns;<\/span> Devin Duvernay is ready<\/span><\/p>\n Jeff Zrebiac of the Athletic outlined why Ravens<\/a> fans should already be concerned about their offensive line. Starting center<\/span> Bradley Bozeman<\/span> left the game with an ankle injury and left tackle<\/span> Ronnie Stanley<\/span> has yet to join team workouts while still recovering from ankle surgery last November. Veteran<\/span> Kevin Zeitler<\/span> and third-round rookie Ben Cleveland both missed practice last week with injuries. Rookie wideout Rashod Bateman is out several weeks after groin surgery, putting the dynamic rookie even further behind schedule. <\/span><\/p>\n Throw in<\/span> Lamar Jackson<\/span>‘s second round of COVID, and there are real concerns in Baltimore. The lone bright spot was 4.39 speedster Devin Duvernay, who had four catches in their 17-14 win over the Saints. For a team with a shaky WR1 in<\/span> Marquise Brown<\/span> and a shallow wide receiver depth chart, Duvernay could find an early season path to opportunity.<\/span><\/p>\n Observations<\/strong><\/p>\n Devin Singletary takes advantage;<\/span>\u00a0Matt Breida lurking;<\/span>\u00a0Jake Kumerow fighting<\/span><\/p>\n After very strong early reports,<\/span> Zack Moss missed Buffalo’s first preseason game with a hamstring injury. The third-year running back gained 42 yards on eight carries and caught one pass for Buffalo’s only touchdown of the game. Veteran <\/span>Matt Breida still showed explosiveness and caught two passes. This is still Moss’ backfield, but Buffalo’s has ample depth at the running back position. At wide receiver, 29-year old Jake Kumerow<\/span> appears to have moved ahead<\/span><\/a> of Isaiah Hodgins and Marquez Stevenson. With 34-year old <\/span>Emmanuel Sanders listed as a starter, Kumerow is a deep league waiver watch in case of an injury.<\/span><\/p>\n Made it look too easy. \ud83d\ude0e #BUFvsDET<\/a> <\/p>\n \ud83d\udcfa: WIVB + @NFLNetwork<\/a> + The Bills App pic.twitter.com\/z0xnZOkLfH<\/a><\/p>\n — Buffalo Bills (@BuffaloBills) August 14, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nBuffalo Bills<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n
