  "account": "The Baltimore Ravens are still unsure whether Zay Flowers will play in Sunday's Week 4 game against the Tennessee Titans due to a hamstring injury. Flowers has had an inconsistent practice schedule, participating at limited levels on Wednesday, fully on Thursday, and again at limited participation on Friday. Despite this unusual progression, he did play in the Week 3 matchup against Dallas. Flowers' skills, including his speed and ability to threaten every level of the field, pose a significant threat to their opponents. His workload would be worth watching after his recent downgrade from full to limited participation. If Flowers is unable to play, Rashod Bateman and Devontez Walker would assume more responsibility on the periphery. Additionally, the Ravens might rely more on their running backs, such as Mark Andrews and Matthew Hibner, to utilize the passing game. Chris Moore's availability remains uncertain due to an ankle injury, further complicating the receiver rotation. The official decision on Flowers' status will be made with Baltimore's inactive list, announced approximately 90 minutes before the noon CT kickoff.",
