| News for Flowers, Zay |

Zay Flowers (hamstring) will play in Week 3 against the Cowboys. 2026-09-27 15:00:01 According to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, Flowers is only expected to be on the field for “about 20-30 plays.” Given this piece of news, fantasy managers looking to play Flowers shouldn’t view him as anything more than a WR3/WR4 in what could be a low-volume day for the Ravens’ WR1. While Flowers is active, the Ravens have declared WR Elijah Sarratt, FS K’Von Wallace, LB Carl Jones, LT Ronnie Stanley, DT Aeneas Peebles, and QB Fagnano inactive for Week 3. |

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Zay Flowers is a “true pre-game decision” for Week 3 against the Cowboys. 2026-09-27 09:00:02 Schefter did add, “The team doesn’t sound as if it is counting on him playing.” The Ravens are taking on Dallas in Brazil, so the team wants to get him on the field for warmups to see how he responds to the reportedly spotty and uneven turf. There’s still a chance he plays, but it has already been reported that he will be on a snap count if active. At this point, fantasy managers should treat Flowers as if he’s out. Rashod Bateman took over the No. 1 receiver duties last week and went for 88 yards plus a touchdown. He will be in the WR3 mix once again if Flowers is inactive. |

Zay Flowers (hamstring) will likely be on a snap count if active for Week 3 against the Cowboys, reports ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. 2026-09-26 10:00:02 Flowers missed Week 2’s loss to the Saints with a hamstring injury after catching five passes for 150 yards and a touchdown in the Week 1 victory over the Colts. Rashod Bateman stepped up as the Ravens’ leading receiver with Flowers out in Week 2. That would likely be the case again if Flowers is held out. As Fowler reports, Flowers would likely be on a snap count if he’s active against the Cowboys in Week 3, which would seem to muddy things for both his and Bateman’s fantasy prospects against the Cowboys. Baltimore takes on Dallas Sunday afternoon at Maracaná Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. |

Zay Flowers (hamstring) returned to practice on Friday. 2026-09-25 15:00:03 Baltimore Banner’s Jonas Shaffer maintained the beat’s skepticism of Flowers’ availability for Week 3’s game in Rio by saying it “still seems unlikely” he’ll play. At the very least, Flowers’ appearance is probably a good sign for his chance for Week 4. We’ll grab a fresh update once the Ravens drop statuses; it seems likely Flowers will not be better than questionable. |

Ravens WR Zay Flowers (hamstring) was not seen practicing on Thursday. 2026-09-24 14:00:03 Beat reporters observed Flowers working out on his own before practice, but the Ravens’ No. 1 wide receiver headed back inside the building before his teammates took the field. ESPN’s Jamison Hensley wrote, “it’s looking like Baltimore will be without Flowers for a second consecutive game.” The team downplayed Flowers’ Week 1 hamstring aggravation, but he is currently on the wrong side of questionable. The Ravens depart for Brazil this evening and arrive on Friday morning. If Flowers travels, he may have a chance to play, though he will carry re-injury risk. |
