Zay Flowers's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers has consistently hovered around WR2/WR3 territory all year, which has been amazing considering the fact that this is only his rookie year and the Ravens completely overhauled their offensive style and gameplan. Flowers normally would come in with a higher value, but the Kansas City Chiefs have been very good against opposing passing attacks, and if they decide to have L'Jarius Sneed shadow him, it will be a tough day. The sheer amount of targets that he gets on a game-to-game basis will keep him relevant in DFS lineups though. He led the team in targets this year with 108 and he caught 77 of them for 858 yards and five touchdowns. Flowers could be considered a WR2 again in this matchup.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers faced a significant challenge in Saturday's Divisional Round game, shadowed by elite talent Derek Stingley Jr. for most of the match. The rookie first-round pick ended up catching four of his five targets for 41 yards in the team's 34-10 victory over Houston. After spending one half shadowed by Stingley and another half securing the win with the run, Flowers had limited opportunities to produce. Houston, recognizing the threat posed by Flowers, made efforts to neutralize him or, at the very least, slow him down. Baltimore will face either the Bills or Chiefs next week at M&T Bank Stadium, and both teams rank in the top 10 in DVOA against the pass while being stingy against receivers. However, the game script is likely to favor Flowers, as the game is expected to stay more competitive, preventing the ability to run the clock out for an entire quarter.

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Zay Flowers (calf) was able to put in full practices on Wednesday and Thursday and has been removed from the final injury report this week. He is cleared to play on Saturday against the Houston Texans in the Divisional Round. The Ravens held Flowers out in a meaningless Week 18 regular season finale, and he's ready to rock for the team's first playoff game after having a bye in the wild-card round. Even if tight end Mark Andrews (ankle) comes off Injured Reserve to play for the first time since Week 11, Flowers should be heavily targeted by quarterback Lamar Jackson against a Texans defense that was much more friendly to opposing receivers to close out the regular season. In the regular season opener against Houston, the first-round wideout caught a season-high-tying nine of 10 targets for 78 yards. Flowers is a fine DFS target at his $6,000 DraftKings price tag.

Both Baltimore Ravens wide receivers Zay Flowers (calf) and Devin Duvernay (back) were full participants in practice on Wednesday. Flowers, who did not play in the Week 18 regular season finale as a precaution in a meaningless game, said he feels great and is ready to go for the Divisional Round of the playoffs this Saturday against the Houston Texans. The 23-year-old rookie was listed as limited on Tuesday's injury report and he probably could have played in Week 18 had it been a game that mattered. Flowers, who had a solid 77-858-5 line during the regular season on 108 targets, should operate as Baltimore's No. 1 receiver for quarterback Lamar Jackson, giving him plenty of DFS appeal in what could end up being a shootout against the upstart Texans. Duvernay will likely be more of a factor on special teams if he's activated from Injured Reserve to play on Saturday.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (calf) returned to practice on Tuesday after sitting out all of the team's practices during the bye week. It's obviously great news for quarterback Lamar Jackson, as Flowers could be an X-factor in Baltimore's potential Super Bowl run. Flowers has been nursing a calf injury since the Week 17 win over the Miami Dolphins. The rookie led the team in targets (108), receptions (77), and receiving yards (858) this year and is set to face a Houston Texans defense that surrendered 258 receiving yards to Amari Cooper a few weeks ago. The team's official practice report later in the day will indicate whether he practiced in full or was limited, but either way, this is a great sign for his chances to suit up for Saturday's playoff game. UPDATE: Flowers was limited in practice Tuesday.
