Zay Flowers Inactive for Ravens Playoff Game vs. Bills

The Ravens will be without top wide receiver Zay Flowers for Sunday night’s Divisional playoff game in Buffalo.

Flowers, who didn’t practice all week, was doubtful heading into the game and will miss a second straight playoff game after suffering a knee injury in the regular-season finale.

In addition to Flowers, the Ravens’ other inactives are as follows:

The Ravens adjusted well without Flowers, a Pro Bowler with 1,059 receiving yards this season, last week against the Steelers. Baltimore leaned more heavily on their tight ends and extra linemen in a run-heavy approach.

Baltimore could do so again versus the Bills. Flowers only had one catch for 10 yards in the Ravens’ 35-10 win over the Bills in Week 4.

Rashod Bateman, who has five touchdowns over the Ravens’ past four games, could also see more action as Baltimore’s No. 1 wide receiver.

The Ravens opted to activate Keaton Mitchell as their No. 3 running back again over Ali. They did not move Deonte Harty to the 53-man roster, meaning Steven Sims is likely expected to handle punt return duties again.

There’s a light snow falling at Highmark Stadium during “warmups” with around 20-degree temperatures, but the precipitation is expected to pass and temperatures aren’t slated to plummet as it turns dark. There is not much wind.

Bills backup running back Ray Davis, who was dealing with a concussion, will play. Davis had 442 rushing yards and five total touchdowns this season. Buffalo is totally healthy entering the game.
