Ravens' LaJohntay Wester: Catches one target in loss
Wester caught one of his two targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Saints.
Wester was asked to step up with wide receiver Zay Flowers (hamstring) unavailable. The wide receiver played 31 of 58 offensive snaps but only saw two targets in the contest. Wester doesn't lack for speed, but it appears he may not be quite ready to handle a full role in the Ravens' offense.

Ravens' LaJohntay Wester: Prepping for role in slot
Wester is preparing for a larger role in the likely absence of Zay Flowers, who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against New Orleans due to a hamstring injury, Ryan Mink of the Ravens' official site reports.
Wester caught 252 passes during his college career at Florida Atlantic, but he's largely been a return specialist since the Ravens took him in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft. He should get some of the slot snaps in 11 personnel, which is where Flowers was dominating during last week's win over the Colts before a hamstring injury forced him to the sideline late in the second quarter. After finishing his rookie season with zero targets on 58 offensive snaps, Wester played 20 snaps last week and caught both of his targets for 15 yards.

Ravens' LaJohntay Wester: Used as special teamer as rookie
Wester finished the season with 246 kick return yards and 198 punt return yards. He did not draw a target on 58 offensive snaps.
The rookie was used almost exclusively on special teams. He never played more than nine snaps on offense in any game. Wester established himself as an effective punt returner and finished in the top 20 in punt return yards with 198. While his fantasy output was disappointing, it's too early to give up on Wester being a factor in that regard. Baltimore had a veteran-laden group of pass-catchers in 2025, but it's far from a guarantee that the depth chart will look the same next season. DeAndre Hopkins and Tylan Wallace are expected to hit free agency, and the offense itself will look different under a new coaching staff. Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman are established starters, and Devontez Walker has shown some flashes. That said, Wester has a chance to climb the depth chart depending on how Baltimore approaches the offseason.

Ravens' LaJohntay Wester: Limited to specialty role
Wester gained 16 yards on a punt return and went without a target while playing four of the Ravens' 43 snaps on offense in Sunday's 44-10 loss to the Texans.
A rookie sixth-round pick out of Colorado, Wester has logged just nine snaps at receiver through the Ravens' first five contests. He'll likely continue to handle a light role on offense while providing most of his value to the Ravens as the team's top option on punt returns.

Ravens' LaJohntay Wester: Adds to case for roster spot
Wester caught both of his targets for 28 yards in Saturday's preseason win over Washington, adding one carry for five yards and a punt return for three yards.
There was already talk that the rookie sixth-round pick locked up a roster spot when he returned a punt 87 yards for a touchdown in the preseason opener. A strong showing on offense in the final preseason game isn't likely to help Wester earn Week 1 wideout snaps, but he's at last headed for a roster spot and a role on special teams.

Ravens' LaJohntay Wester: Returns punt for TD
Wester returned a punt for an 87-yard touchdown and caught two of three passes for a team-high 41 yards in Thursday's preseason opener against Indianapolis.
Wester had 2,099 receiving yards over his final two collegiate seasons, but as a rookie sixth-round pick in a deep offense, he'll probably need to make his mark in the return game initially. He may have already earned his roster spot, with the standout performance Thursday coming on the heels of positive reports out of Ravens training camp. The team does have other options for returns, however, including Tylan Wallace, Jaire Alexander and Keaton Mitchell.

Ravens' LaJohntay Wester: Lands in Baltimore
The Ravens selected Wester in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 203rd overall.
Wester was a longtime contributor at Florida Atlantic before linking up with Colorado for his final season. He caught 26 touchdowns over his final three years in college, including a career-high 10 in 2024 while also posting a career high in yards per target (9.9). Wester is small and speedy at 5-foot-9 and 170 pounds with a 4.46 40. He can function on short routes or make plays deep down the field. Wester wins in similar ways to fellow Raven Zay Flowers and could occupy that type of role in a pinch. As it stands, though, Wester has a big hill to climb to see playing time in Baltimore. Wester's ability in the return game is likely his best path to seeing the field early in his career.
