Zay Flowers' status for Brazil is in doubt after another missed practice
Zay Flowers worked out separately Thursday but did not participate in Ravens practice, casting doubt on his availability against Dallas in Brazil
Zay Flowers' status for the Baltimore Ravens' game in Brazil is becoming uncertain after yet another missed practice. Flowers was absent from Thursday's practice, participating in an individual cardio workout with trainers before briefly speaking with coach Jesse Minter before jogging back to the team facility. Left tackle Ronnie Stanley, who is recovering from a toe injury, was also not seen at the start of practice on Wednesday.
Neither Flowers nor Stanley have been officially cleared to practice yet. While Flowers has not been ruled out for Sunday's game, another missed practice would leave little time for preparation before the trip. His absence would be significant for the offense, as they scored four touchdowns on five drives with him against Indianapolis, compared to only three touchdowns on 16 drives without him.
The Ravens' receivers, including Rashod Bateman, would need to take on more work if Flowers cannot play. The final injury report on Friday will provide a clearer picture of Flowers' availability for the game against the Dallas Cowboys.
