Zay Flowers Apologizes for Dodging Media After Two-Fumble Loss

The wideout’s on-camera mea culpa signals accountability during a needed reset for Baltimore.

Overview

  • After Monday’s post-bye practice, Flowers told reporters he was wrong to leave without speaking following the Week 6 loss to the Rams and said it would not happen again.
  • He explained the turnovers, citing a punched-out ball by Rams linebacker Nate Landman on a catch-and-run and a later mishandled end-around exchange from backup quarterback Cooper Rush.
  • On-site videos posted by Brian Wacker of the Baltimore Sun and ESPN’s Jamison Hensley captured Flowers’ apology and his play-by-play explanations.
  • The Ravens enter the week at 1-5 after two games without a passing touchdown and describe the bye as a reset before facing the Bears.
  • Flowers leads Baltimore in receiving and targets this season, DeAndre Hopkins urged him to keep his head up, and coach John Harbaugh offered no firm update on Lamar Jackson’s return.
