29-Year-Old FullbackFB

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Ricard has been one of the last remaining fullbacks with a significant role over the past few seasons. He routinely played a healthy amount of snaps from 2019 through 2022, topping out at 57 percent of the offensive snaps (681 total) last season. Ricard was a great fit in the Greg Roman offense that emphasized big personnel and the run game. Now that Roman is gone and Todd Monken is taking over as offensive coordinator, Ricard is at risk of seeing a serious role reduction. Ricard could still be used in short-yardage situations, but it's unlikely that he'll come close to his recent snap count totals. His involvement in the passing game, though minimal, could also be phased out of the offense. Read Past Outlooks

Goes without target Week 16
FBBaltimore Ravens
December 20, 2023
Ricard played 37 of the Ravens' 70 snaps on offense but went without a carry or target in Sunday's 23-7 win over the Jaguars.
ANALYSIS
The 6-foot-3, 305-pound fullback has played double-digit snaps on offense in all 14 of the Ravens' games this season, but he mainly functions as a lead blocker or de facto offensive lineman whenever he's on the field. He has yet to record a carry and has turned five targets into four catches for 48 yards over 359 total snaps.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2018
Ricard is a unique player in today's NFL as he serves double duty as both a fullback and reserve defensive lineman. He plays a healthy amount of snaps in Greg Roman's complex and run-heavy system, mostly serving as a blocker. He draws occasional targets, having posted a new career-high (12) in 2020 and converting that into nine catches for 45 yards and a touchdown. Look for him to have a similar role this year, with most of his snaps coming on the offensive side of the ball.
Two-way players are close to extinct in today's NFL, but Ricard has found footing as a combo fullback and defensive end in Baltimore. He played roughly one-third of the team's offensive snaps and just over 10 percent of its defensive snaps in 2019. Ricard's main function on offense is as a blocker in Baltimore's power run game and he has very little involvement in the passing attack. He drew 11 targets in 2019, reeling in eight receptions for 47 yards and a score. Ricard figures to reprise his hybrid role in 2020, with the potential for seeing a slight reduction in snaps on defense after the Ravens added Calais Campbell and Derek Wolfe in the offseason.
Fullbacks are becoming less and less prevalent on NFL rosters, but the Ravens are one squad that still finds use for them. Ricard doesn't have the natural pass catching ability of a Kyle Juszczyk, but he's decent in that regard and he's versatile enough to also add depth along the defensive line. If he does make the team, he'll be an occasional asset in short yardage and goal line packages.
