2024 Fantasy Outlook
Bates signed a four-year, $64 million deal with the Falcons prior to the 2023 season, making him one of the highest-paid safeties in the league. He lived up to that billing in his first year with the team, topping 1,000 defensive snaps for the first time since 2020. Bates primarily continued to work as a traditional free safety, though the one area he was asked to expand his usage was by stepping into coverage in the slot at a higher rate. He took quite well to that role, posting one of his better completion percentage against rates (63.2 percent) of his career as well as limiting receivers to 12.4 yards per reception. It's difficult to expect more than the 2023 stat line that Bates contributed, but there's no doubt that he'll remain a stalwart with the Atlanta defense. Read Past Outlooks
Game-sealing INT vs. Las Vegas
Bates registered two solo tackles and an interception during Monday's 15-9 loss to the Raiders.
ANALYSIS
Bates logged his third interception of the regular season Monday on a Hail Mary pass from Desmond Ridder. Bates' two tackles were his lowest since Week 7, but he's played in 100 percent of the Falcons' defensive snaps in nine of 14 regular-season games. He's up to 83 tackles (50 solo), eight pass defenses (including three interceptions), four forced fumbles and one fumble recovery.

2019
Bates signed a four-year contract with the Falcons this offseason after five years in Cincinnati. The 2018 second-round pick has never played fewer than 15 games in a season and had 100-plus tackles in each of his first three campaigns. He also has 14 interceptions, including a career-high four in 2022. His tackling production has dropped in each of the last two years, but Bates remains an elite playmaker and is one of the Falcons' best defenders. The 26-year-old is slated for a hefty workload, but his turnover potential may take a hit if Atlanta's defense isn't considerably improved in 2023.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Hoping to stay in Cincy
Bates would like to return to the Bengals in 2023, Olivia Ray of WLWT Cincinnati reports.
ANALYSIS
The safety played on the franchise tag this season, a decision which seemed to cause some friction last summer between Bates and the team, but with unrestricted free agency approaching the 25-year-old made it clear he didn't want to play for another team. "I'd love to be here, but that's out of my control," Bates said Monday. "Whatever happens at the end of the day, I can say I love my brothers like no other. I played my heart out like no other. And that's all you can really control, at the end of the day." Cincinnati is also facing the prospect of losing Vonn Bell in free agency, so one of the two could be brought back by the Bengals next season and starting alongside 2022 first-round pick Dax Hill.
