Flowers led the Ravens in targets and receptions and tallied two touchdowns. The first came on a three-yard reception early in the second quarter, while he later sealed the victory on a 37-yard rush around the left end to put the Ravens up by 10 points late in the fourth quarter. Targets tend to be dispersed widely in the Baltimore offense, so he isn't likely to put up big performances consistently, but Flowers now has more than 50 yards from scrimmage in three consecutive games.

Flowers led the Ravens in targets and receptions and tallied two touchdowns. The first came on a three-yard reception early in the second quarter, while he later sealed the victory on a 37-yard rush around the left end to put the Ravens up by 10 points late in the fourth quarter. Targets tend to be dispersed widely in the Baltimore offense, so he isn't likely to put up big performances consistently, but Flowers now has more than 50 yards from scrimmage in three consecutive games.
Flowers, who approached the contest officially listed as questionable, missed practice Thursday, but he was a full participant Friday and declared himself "ready to go" afterward, per Jamison Hensley of ESPN. With his active status for Sunday night's contest confirmed, the Ravens' leading receiver is slated to remain a key target for QB Lamar Jackson in a pass-catching corps that will be without star tight end Mark Andrews, who was placed on IR on Saturday due to an ankle injury. Through 11 games this season, Flowers has compiled a 53/588/1 receiving line on 72 targets, with the 2023 first-rounder's standing within Baltimore's offense providing him with weekly fantasy utility.
Flowers practiced fully Friday but is officially listed as questionable heading into Sunday's game. The rookie first-round pick looks poised to suit up Sunday, though fantasy managers won't have official word on his status until the Ravens release their inactive list roughly 90 minutes ahead of the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. Fellow wideout Odell Beckham (shoulder) is also expected to suit up despite being listed as questionable.
Flowers already downplayed his absence from practice Thursday and told reporters his availability for Sunday has never been in doubt, per Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com. A full practice to close out the week confirms the rookie is on track to play, though the Ravens will leave the door open for a last-second change of heart or setback. Fellow wideout Odell Beckham (shoulder) also is listed as questionable for Sunday night's game despite upgrading to full practice participation Friday.
Flowers said his availability was never in doubt, noting that he "had to take a little break" due to the minor hip injury. It sounds like he'll practice again Friday and either avoid a game designation of be listed as questionable.
Flowers didn't practice Thursday, so his presence on the field Friday is a positive step ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers. The Ravens' final Week 12 injury report will be released later Friday and will clarify whether Flowers heads into the weekend with an injury designation.
Flowers was limited Wednesday, so his downgrade to 'DNP' a day later is notable. Meanwhile, fellow WR Odell Beckham (shoulder) was limited Thursday, while Rashod Bateman (foot) worked fully. Friday's injury report will add valuable context regarding the chances of the trio all playing Sunday night against the Chargers, but unless Flowers practices fully to close the week, he figures to head into the weekend with an injury designation.
This is his first time not being a full participant all season, and with no indication of a serious injury. Flowers played 98 percent of Baltimore's snaps on offense in a 34-20 win over the Bengals last Thursday, finishing with four touches for 50 yards after a dubious holding call cost him a 69-yard TD on a screen pass. The rookie already leads Baltimore targets (72) and looks like a clear No. 1 in the passing game after TE Mark Andrews suffered a season-ending leg injury last week. Flowers should be busy Sunday night against the Chargers if he's able to move past the hip injury.
Flowers finished a distant second in receiving yards to Odell Beckham (shoulder) and was the runner-up to his teammate in receptions and targets as well. The rookie speedster gained the majority of his production on a 33-yard grab, but he's now been under 50 receiving yards in three of the past four games. However, Flowers could be one of the Ravens pass catchers to benefit during the rest of the campaign from the apparent season-ending ankle injury suffered by Mark Andrews in the first quarter of Thursday's contest.
