Ravens' Zay Flowers: Ravens keen on extension
Baltimore Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta said Thursday on 105.7 The Fan that Baltimore "definitely" wants to ink Zay Flowers to a contract extension before the start of the 2026 regular season, Cordell Woodland of 105.7 The Fan Baltimore reports.The Ravens already picked up Flowers' fifth-year option, keeping him under contract through 2027 while giving both sides time to work out an extension. Flowers has also made clear he wants to remain with Baltimore long term, so a deal appears more a matter of timing than interest. Flowers is solidified as the No. 1 receiving option for quarterback Lamar Jackson and posted a career-best 86-1,215-5 line in 2025 while playing in all 17 regular-season games.

Ravens' Zay Flowers: Returning as Ravens' top target
Zay Flowers will enter training camp ready to reprise his role as Baltimore's No. 1 wide receiver and the top target of quarterback Lamar Jackson, Clifton Brown of the team's official site reports.Flowers is coming off back-to-back Pro Bowl seasons and is entrenched atop a depth chart that has plenty of uncertainty behind him. Rashod Bateman (personal) is expected to start opposite Flowers after an injury-shortened 2025 campaign, while Devontez Walker and rookies Ja'Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt will compete for the No. 3 job. That leaves Flowers positioned for another high-volume season under new head coach Jesse Minter, and he could challenge the franchise's single-season receiving yardage record of 1,361, which tight end Mark Andrews set in 2021. Flowers posted a career-best 86-1,211-5 receiving line on 118 targets while playing all 17 regular-season games in 2025, and he and Andrews could both benefit from more volume after the departure of Isaiah Likely in free agency.

Ravens' Zay Flowers: Fifth-year option picked up
The Baltimore Ravens exercised Zay Flowers' $27.3 million team option for the 2027 season Thursday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.Picking up Flowers' fifth-year option was viewed as a formality for the Ravens, after the 25-year-old led Baltimore in receptions and receiving yards in each of his three seasons since entering the NFL as a first-round selection out of Boston College in 2023. Though Flowers will be on the books for the next two seasons, the Ravens are expected to initiate talks with the wideout on a contract extension over the next few months. Flowers will be locked in as Baltimore's clear top target heading into the upcoming campaign and could have a chance at building on the career-best 86-1,211-5 receiving line he produced in 2025 after the Ravens let Isaiah Likely walk in free agency and have thus far not brought in any major reinforcements at receiver or tight end.

Ravens' Zay Flowers: Saves best for last in 2025
Zay Flowers brought in four of six targets for 138 yards and a pair of touchdowns in Sunday's 26-24 loss to the Steelers.Flowers waited until Week 18 to produce his finest fantasy performance of the season. The 24-year-old popped off for 138 yards while scoring multiple touchdowns in a game for the first time in 2025. The Boston College product set new career highs in receptions (86) and receiving yards (1,211) this year, and his recent scoring binge (five TDs over last four games) helped him tie the six touchdowns he scored in his rookie campaign. Flowers will enter the final year of his rookie contract operating as the Baltimore Ravens' top wideout, a role that should provide plenty of upside for fantasy managers in 2026.

Ravens' Zay Flowers: Scores in third straight
Zay Flowers recorded four receptions on five targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 41-24 win over the Packers.The Baltimore Ravens took to the air only 20 times and limited most of those attempts to short areas of the field. That held back all of their pass catchers, though Flowers made the most of his opportunity to lead the team in receptions and yards. He also found the end zone for the third straight game after making a 10-yard touchdown catch early in the fourth quarter.

Ravens' Zay Flowers: Solid showing marred by fumble
Zay Flowers recorded seven receptions on seven targets for 84 yards in Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Patriots. He added one rush for 18 yards and one touchdown.Flowers had one of his better showings of the season, as he topped 100 yards from scrimmage for only the third time in 15 games. He was particularly involved as a pass catcher early in the contest -- before Lamar Jackson exited with a back injury -- logging receptions of 19 and 18 yards on Baltimore's first possession before chipping in a 14-yard catch on the team's second drive. Flowers also found the end zone for the second consecutive game on a 14-yard end-around late in the third quarter. Despite turning in one of his more productive games of the season, Flowers' effort was overshadowed by a lost fumble late in the game that helped New England clinch the win.

Ravens' Zay Flowers: Hauls in first TD since Week 1
Zay Flowers caught three of five targets for 68 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-0 win over the Bengals.Lamar Jackson ended up attempting only 12 passes on the day as the Baltimore Ravens defense dominated, but one of those tosses went for a 28-yard TD to Flowers in the second quarter. It was the third-year wideout's first trip to the end zone since Week 1, but it continued a productive stretch for Flowers that has seen him top 60 yards in six of eight games since Baltimore's bye while compiling a 37-536-1 line on 54 targets. Flowers will likely be a little busier in Week 16 against the Patriots.

Ravens' Zay Flowers: Best performance since Week 1
Zay Flowers recorded eight receptions on 11 targets for 124 yards in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Steelers.Lamar Jackson looked Flowers' way often, and Flowers matched his highest target total of the season while hitting double-digit opportunities for the third time this season. He took advantage with long gains of 35, 33 and 31 yards to top 100 yards for only the second time on the campaign. The only shortcoming in the performance was Flowers' inability to find the end zone, as he has not scored since Week 1.

Ravens' Zay Flowers: Forgettable night in loss
Zay Flowers brought in two of seven targets for six yards and lost a fumble in the Baltimore Ravens' 32-14 loss to the Bengals on Thursday night.Flowers not only finished with his lowest yardage total of the season, but his fumble at the Ravens' 43-yard line with just over four minutes remaining led to a Bengals field goal and essentially snuffed out any hopes of a comeback for Baltimore. His target count was actually his highest since Week 8, but a combination of a surprisingly effective Bengals defense and Lamar Jackson's struggles with accuracy helped lead to a highly inefficient line for Flowers. He'll aim to bounce back against an inconsistent Steelers secondary in a Week 14 home matchup on Sunday, Dec. 7.

Ravens' Zay Flowers: Leading receiver in Week 12 win
Zay Flowers caught five of six targets for 58 yards and rushed twice for 11 yards in Sunday's 23-10 win over the Jets.Flowers accounted for 58 of Lamar Jackson's 153 passing yards while no teammate exceeded 30 receiving yards. The shifty wide receiver is the top option in Baltimore's passing game, but the Baltimore Ravens haven't gotten much going through the air in recent weeks, as Jackson has just one passing touchdown over the past three games while throwing for fewer than 200 yards in each of those outings. Flowers has caught 58 of 77 targets for 761 yards but has only one touchdown heading into Thursday's home game against the Bengals on Thanksgiving night.
