Ravens WR Zay Flowers (knee) out vs. Steelers

Zay Flowers

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers did not participate in practice for the third straight day on Thursday and has been ruled out for Saturday’s AFC wild-card game versus the visiting Pittsburgh Steelers.

Flowers sustained a knee injury during Baltimore’s 35-10 victory over the Cleveland Browns last Saturday in the regular-season finale.

“Zay Flowers is not going to be able to make it to the game this week,” Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said on Thursday. “So, he’ll get started again next week and we’ll move forward with the guys we have, and we’re excited about the guys we have, which is everybody else.”

With Flowers sitting out against the Steelers, Rashod Bateman would be considered Baltimore’s top wideout.

Flowers caught a 12-yard pass from quarterback Lamar Jackson and went to the ground at the Cleveland 12-yard line, where he was hit on the knee by Mohamoud Diabate as the Browns linebacker fell to the turf.

After getting medical attention on the field, Flowers walked with a slight limp to the sidelines with 12:03 to go in the quarter. He went to the blue medical tent before leaving the sideline for the locker room. The Ravens ruled him out for the rest of the game.

Elected to his first Pro Bowl, Flowers leads the Ravens with 74 receptions for 1,059 yards. He caught four touchdown receptions.

He has not missed a game because of injury in his two seasons.

Flowers, 24, started all 16 games as a rookie in 2023, when he had 77 receptions for 858 yards and five TDs, and rushed eight times for 56 yards and another score. The Ravens selected him with the 22nd overall pick of the 2023 NFL Draft out of Boston College.
