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

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.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (calf) is not participating in the first of three bye-week practices. The talented rookie did not play in the season finale against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but other notable starters like Odell Beckham Jr. and Lamar Jackson were held out, too. He is dealing with a calf injury, so the team is likely to be careful with him during the week off. Flowers accumulated 108 targets, 77 receptions, 858 yards, and five touchdowns during his debut campaign. He'll likely rest up this week as the Ravens wait to see who they will face in the Divisional Round next weekend at home.

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Zay Flowers (calf) didn't practice all week and is listed as doubtful to play on Saturday night in Week 18 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Ravens have the top seed in the AFC and a first-round bye in the playoffs locked up, so they will be resting some players this weekend. In addition to Flowers on offense, quarterback Lamar Jackson, receiver Odell Beckham Jr. and right guard Kevin Zeitler (knee, quadriceps) won't play. Receiver Tylan Wallace (knee) is also questionable to play. Fantasy managers are going to have to ignore Flowers this week and will probably want to ignore Baltimore's offense entirely with quarterback Tyler Huntley making his first start of the year against a Steelers team still fighting for a playoff spot. With both OBJ and Flowers out, Rashod Bateman and Nelson Agholor will be the team's top two receivers in addition to tight end Isaiah Likely.

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Zay Flowers (calf) was held out of practice for the second straight day on Wednesday. Flowers played through his calf issue in the Week 17 beatdown of the Miami Dolphins and caught all three of his targets for 106 yards and a touchdown while playing a season-low 56 percent of the offensive snaps. The first-rounder can probably play through the injury in this weekend's regular season finale against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday, but with the Ravens having already locked up the No. 1 seed in the AFC, he's a candidate to be rested this weekend. Baltimore has already announced that star quarterback Lamar Jackson will not play in Week 18. If Flowers is held out, Odell Beckham Jr., Rashod Bateman and Nelson Agholor would see more opportunities with Tyler Huntley running the offense.

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Zay Flowers (calf) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report. Flowers missed two practices last week before returning to practice on Friday and playing in the Week 17 blowout win over the Miami Dolphins, where he did not look injured at all on his way to three catches for 106 yards and a touchdown. The 23-year-old wasn't believed to have suffered any kind of setback with his calf last Sunday, so he should return to practice later this week and be ready to play in Week 18 against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday. However, now that the Ravens have locked up the No. 1 seed in the AFC and a first-round bye in the playoffs, there's no telling who they might be looking to rest in a meaningless game for them in Week 18.
