Flowers (knee) exits Ravens’ victory; MRI slated

NFL

BALTIMORE — The NFL’s No. 1 offense could have an injury concern as the Baltimore Ravens head into the playoffs.

Wide receiver Zay Flowers was ruled out for the rest of the game after suffering a right knee injury early in the second quarter vs. the Cleveland Browns on Saturday night. This comes two days after Flowers was named to his first Pro Bowl.

About three minutes into the second quarter, Flowers was falling forward after a 12-yard catch when his right leg whipped against Ravens guard Andrew Vorhees just as Browns linebacker Mohamoud Diabate hit Flowers’ knee. Flowers limped off the field and eventually headed to the locker room.

A first-round pick in 2023, Flowers has become Lamar Jackson‘s No. 1 wide receiver. Flowers leads Baltimore with 74 receptions for 1,059 yards.

Flowers became the first Ravens player to reach the Pro Bowl as a wide receiver in the team’s 29-year history.
