  "account": "The Baltimore Ravens acknowledged Friday they were aware of receiver Rashod Bateman's arrest in June in Georgia for a domestic violence incident and have been in communication with him. The NFL is currently reviewing the case, with league spokesman Brian McCarthy confirming the team's notification. The Ravens have not provided further comment due to the pending legal matter. TMZ reported Bateman was arrested for smashing a window in the car of the mother of his child, causing the 3-month-old child to suffer lacerations on her face. The arrest warrant states Bateman used an object to break the driver's side window early on June 6. Bateman surrendered to Walton County sheriff's office that same day. His legal team stated Bateman voluntarily turned himself in and the victim subsequently consented to contact. The Ravens' statement expressed disappointment that a personal family matter had been sensationalized. Bateman signed a $37 million, three-year contract extension in 2024, having reached career highs in receptions and touchdowns in 2024. However, he struggled in last season's campaign with only 224 receiving yards and two touchdowns.",
