Juszczyk caught 19-of-27 targets for 182 yards and a touchdown during the 2014 regular season.

A fourth-round draft pick in 2013, Juszczyk proved to be Baltimore's fullback of the future, after only contributing on special teams as a rookie. He offers a nice combination of blocking and receiving skills, but he hasn't logged a carry in his career, and he lost two fumbles during the 2014 season. He'll be back as the Ravens' starting fullback in 2015.

Juszczyk caught 3-of-3 targets for 21 yards in Sunday's win over the Saints, but he also lost a fumble near the goal line.

Juszczyk fumbled at the Saints' one-yard line at the end of a six-yard reception. He was initially ruled down by contact, but the call was reversed by a New Orleans challenge. While the miscue probably won't affect Juszczyk's role, he's still mostly used as a run-blocker. He doesn't have any carries this season, and owns a 16-175-1 receiving line through 11 games.

Juszczyk caught 2-of-3 targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 48-17 win over the Buccaneers.

Juszczyk's run blocking has been a pleasant surprise for the Ravens, allowing him to stay on the field a bit more than expected, though that can mostly be pinned on the absence of Dennis Pitta (hip). Juszczyk doesn't have a carry through six games but does have seven catches for 91 yards and a touchdown on 12 targets.

Juszczyk caught 2-of-2 targets for eight yards in Sunday's 38-10 win over the Panthers.

Following last week's 3-54-1 receiving line, Juszczyk provided numbers that are more typical of a fullback. While known more for his receiving skills coming out of college, he's mostly been used as a lead blocker this year. Juszczyk has logged about half of the offensive snaps over the last three weeks, but he played fewer than one-fourth in Week 1 when the Ravens were playing catch-up all game. In all likelihood, he'll continue to get most of his playing time when the team is least likely to throw.

Juszczyk may take on a bigger role in the offense now that tight end Dennis Pitta (hip) has been ruled out for the rest of the season, the Ravens' official website reports.

Listed as the team's starting fullback, Juszczyk mostly played tight end and H-back in college at Harvard. He's 6-1 and not particularly dangerous with the ball, but his speed, route running and hands are all surprisingly excellent for a player listed as a fullback. While still unlikely to emerge as a fantasy option in most leagues, Juszczyk did catch 3-of-4 targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Browns. TE Owen Daniels gets the major stock boost from Pitta's injury, but Juszczyk and backup TE Crockett Gillmore also figure to log extra snaps. Juszczyk was a non-factor in the Baltimore offense as a rookie, after getting selected in the fourth round of the 2013 NFL Draft.

Juszczyk caught three passes for 54 yards and a touchdown on four targets in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Browns

Juszczyk was left wide open for a nine-yard touchdown pass in the first half, and then broke off a 33-yard gain on a screen in the third quarter. With TE Dennis Pitta suffering a dislocated hip in Sunday's game, the Ravens will likely need more out of Juszczyk, after using the fullback on just 43-of-158 snaps through the first two weeks of the season. More of an H-back than a traditional lead-blocking fullback, Juszczyk is an excellent receiver for his position, having primarily played tight end in college at Harvard.

Juszczyk did not register a touch or target in Thursday's 26-6 win over the Steelers.

Juszczyk played 25-of-70 offensive snaps, and while that represents an improvement from last week's 18-of-88, he was only on the field for six pass plays. Until building a two-score lead in the second half, the Ravens barely used Juszczyk outside of goal-line situations. Meanwhile, No. 2 TE Owen Daniels had a strong game, catching a pair of touchdowns while playing 51 snaps.

Juszczyk only played 18-of-88 snaps in Sunday's loss to the Bengals.

The Ravens fell behind 15-0 in the first half, and thus ended up throwing 62 passes. Oddly enough, while he'll need receptions to carve out any shred of fantasy value, Juszczyk is probably a better bet to produce when the Ravens stick with the run. There was perhaps some opportunity for him to carve out a role beyond what you'd expect for a starting fullback, but with Owen Daniels looking healthy, Juszczyk probably won't get more than 1-3 targets per week. He does figure to play more than 18 snaps most games.

Juszczyk caught five passes for 53 yards on five targets in Saturday's preseason game against the Redskins.

Offensive coordinator Gary Kubiak said during the offseason that he could envision Juszczyk catching 40 or 50 passes. While that previously seemed quite optimistic, Juszczyk has been one of Joe Flacco's favorite options this preseason, hauling in all 10 of his targets through three games. With training camp reports on Owen Daniels (leg) rather unflattering, the Ravens could opt to use less of the veteran tight end and more of their versatile second-year fullback. Juszczyk doesn't draw great reviews for his lead blocking, but his receiving skills are excellent for the position. Of course, even if he's a big part of the offense, he'll mostly be catching short passes, and won't be a threat to pile up carries.

Juszczyk has taken a big step from his rookie campaign, the Ravens' official website reports.

After suffering a minor neck injury during last week's preseason game, Juszczyk turned in a strong outing for the second week in a row. He's locked in as the Ravens' starting fullback, but he largely played tight end in college, and won't strictly be used as a lead blocker. With Owen Daniels having a slow training camp and preseason, the Ravens might opt to use more of Juszczyk and less of the veteran than initially expected. While he doesn't figure to see more than the occasional stray carry or two, Juszczyk could be active in the short passing game. Offensive coordinator Gary Kubiak said in June that he could envision the Harvard grad catching 40 or 50 passes this season.

Juszczyk suffered a minor neck injury during Thursday's preseason opener, ESPN reports.

Juszczyk's injury doesn't seem to be much of a concern since coach John Harbaugh said that his team didn't suffer any major injuries during Thursday's game. The fullback has a chance to see some opportunities in the passing attack this season, although, it'd be hard to imagine him finding much fantasy relevancy from the backfield.

Ravens OC Gary Kubiak is comparing second-year FB Kyle Juszczyk to former Texans TE/FB James Casey.

Casey spent four years with Kubiak in Houston, catching 34 passes for 330 yards and three touchdowns in 2012. Juszczyk is similarly useful as a blocker and check-down safety net. He won't have fantasy value, but could help the Ravens.

The Baltimore Sun suggests fourth-round FB Kyle Juszczyk would move to tight end if the Ravens re-signed Vonta Leach.

Juszczyk played tight end at Harvard. At 6-foot-1, 248, he's severely undersized to play that position in the NFL, but Baltimore has a glaring tight end need after losing Dennis Pitta for the season. The Sun's Mike Preston believes the Ravens now have "urgency" to bring back Leach, who is tentatively expected to sign with a team early this week. The sides were negotiating this weekend.

Ravens fourth-round FB Kyle Juszczyk lined up at lead blocker, tight end, and slot receiver during OTAs.

Seeking more versatility at fullback, the Ravens parted with one-dimensional lead blocker Vonta Leach and are turning to Harvard alum Juszczyk to become a bit of a movable chess piece. We could see Juszczyk catching 25-30 passes this season and contributing as a power lead blocker in the run game.
