Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers needed medical attention for an apparent leg injury during the second quarter of Saturday’s clash with the Cleveland Browns.
The second-year receiver had caught a short pass from quarterback Lamar Jackson and ran down to the Cleveland 12-yard line. After he was already on the ground, Flowers appeared to get hit on the inside of his knee by a falling Browns defender. The receiver remained down and grabbed at his knee, rocking back and forth in apparent pain.
Baltimore’s medical personnel tended to the receiver on the field before he walked off under his own power and headed to the blue medical tent.
Flowers eventually headed back to the locker room, and the Ravens announced he is questionable to return.

Zay Flowers injury updates
Shortly after Flowers returned to the locker room, the Ravens declared him questionable to return to the game with a knee injury.
ESPN’s broadcast has not yet shown whether Flowers has returned to Baltimore’s sideline as of the final two minutes of the first half.
This story will be updated as information becomes available.
The Baltimore Ravens suffered a blow to their receiving corps on Sunday as wide receiver Marquise Brown sustained a knee injury during their game against the Cleveland Browns. Brown, who had been a key target for quarterback Lamar Jackson, had to be helped off the field after appearing to tweak his knee while making a catch in the second quarter.
The extent of Brown’s injury is still unknown, but any extended absence would be a significant loss for the Ravens’ offense. The speedy receiver has been a big-play threat for Baltimore, leading the team in receiving yards and touchdowns this season.
With Brown sidelined, the Ravens will need other receivers to step up and fill the void. This injury comes at a crucial time for Baltimore as they continue to battle for a playoff spot in a tight AFC North division.
We will have to wait for further updates on Brown’s condition, but Ravens fans will be holding their breath in hopes that their dynamic playmaker can return to the field soon.
