Zay Flowers Few touches after injury

Flowers caught his lone target for 11 yards and rushed once for 19 yards in Monday’s 41-31 win over the Buccaneers.

Flowers appeared to hurt his ankle during his 19-yard run in the second quarter. He stayed in the game and couldn’t complete a back pass in the fourth quarter on a play that went down as a Lamar Jackson fumble. Flowers’ lack of involvement was especially disappointing considering Jackson threw five touchdown passes, but it’s likely the ankle injury had something to do with Flowers’ quiet night. With that context in mind, Flowers’ status will need to be monitored in Week 8 as he has one less day than normal to recover before facing the Browns.
