Baltimore Ravens star wide receiver Zay Flowers \u201cis a long shot to be able to play this weekend,\u201d NFL Insider Ian Rapoport reported during an appearance on \u201cGood Morning Football\u201d on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Flowers is still dealing with soreness from the knee injury he suffered in Week 18 and was listed as a non-participant in Tuesday\u2019s practice report.<\/p>\n
His likely absence for Saturday\u2019s AFC wild-card game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, scheduled to kick off at 8 p.m. ET, would be a massive blow to the Ravens.<\/p>\n
Flowers was quarterback Lamar Jackson\u2019s top option throughout the regular season and paced the Ravens in targets (116), receptions (74), yards (1,059) and yards after catch (463).<\/p>\n
If the second-year wideout is inactive Saturday, tight ends Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely, and fellow receiver Rashod Bateman, often Jackson\u2019s second option behind Flowers, figure to be more involved.<\/p>\n
The Ravens could also lean more on star running back Derrick Henry and Jackson in the run game.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think it\u2019s just about one guy, it\u2019s everybody,\u201d Ravens\u2019 head coach John Harbaugh said, per ESPN, of making up for Flowers\u2019 potential absence. \u201cWe have a lot of weapons. We can move guys around different ways, scheme those guys up and they can all make plays.\u201d<\/p>\n
Flowers has not been definitively ruled out as of yet, and as Rapoport reports, \u201ceveryone has a chance [to play] because it is the playoffs \u2026 [he] does have a chance to come back the next week, if the Baltimore Ravens take care of business, but this week seems like a \u2018no.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
Flowers\u2019 knee injury occurred in the second quarter of Baltimore\u2019s season finale \u2014 a 35-10 thrashing of the woebegone Browns.<\/p>\n
Harbaugh told reporters after the game that Flowers was going to undergo an MRI to determine the extent of his knee injury.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s something that he has a chance to be OK with, but we\u2019ll probably have more details after an MRI [Sunday] morning,\u201d Harbaugh said.<\/p>\n
On Monday, Harbaugh clarified that Flowers had not suffered a season-ending injury but is considered day-to-day.<\/p>\n
\u201c[Flowers will] try to do everything he can do to get back as soon as he can, and we\u2019ll see where that takes us,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
If Flowers is unable to play, it will be the first game he has missed since the regular-season finale of the 2023 season.<\/p>\n
Fourth-year receiver Tylan Wallace would likely draw the start in Flowers\u2019 place.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
