Outlook Zay Flowers
Zay Flowers at Cleveland: High-Volume Role Anchors Outlook
Flowers was cleared from the injury report after logging limited practices and carries no designation heading into Cleveland. With Lamar Jackson sidelined by an ankle injury, Baltimore turns to Tyler Huntley, likely condensing the passing attack around Flowers. Over his last two contests, Flowers has dominated the team's looks, securing 16 receptions on 19 targets for 171 yards.
Rostered in 100% of leagues and started in 97%, he remains an integral starter despite a low 39.5-point projected game total. Our models project Flowers for 5.7 receptions, 75 receiving yards, and 15.3 fantasy points. While the backup quarterback situation might temper his explosive touchdown upside, his steady target floor keeps him firmly in lineups as a strong WR2.

Outlook Ladd McConkey
Ladd McConkey Cleared for Week 6 at Kansas City — Risky Flex Option
McConkey is officially off the injury report after being held to emergency-only duty in Week 5 due to a lingering foot issue. Although he returned to practice this week, head coach Jim Harbaugh remained noncommittal about whether McConkey will face a snap count against the Chiefs, adding immediate role volatility.
With Tre' Harris ruled out, target opportunity is available, but fantasy managers have grown wary with start rates dropping near 31%. Our models project McConkey for roughly 2.4 receptions and 35 receiving yards. As road underdogs in a low-total matchup, he shapes up as a volatile flex option.
