Zay Flowers vs. Jaguars — Primary Target Facing Severe Quarterback Instability
Despite coming off a zero-catch outing against Buffalo where Lamar Jackson suffered a thumb injury, Flowers remains the clear primary receiver in Baltimore's offense. With both Jackson and backup Tyler Huntley sidelined, the Ravens must turn to third-string passer Joe Fagnano for this Thursday home matchup against Jacksonville.
Our weekly projections slate Flowers for roughly 5 receptions and 71 receiving yards on 8 targets, relying on his playmaking ability after the catch. The severe quarterback downgrade limits his scoring upside, but his reliable target volume keeps fantasy managers comfortable deploying him as a high-floor flex option.

C.J. Stroud at Chargers — Favorable Matchup in SoFi Dome
Stroud enters Week 9 playing disciplined football, boasting an 11-to-1 touchdown-to-interception mark through seven contests. Supported by an elite receiver room featuring Nico Collins, Marvin Harrison Jr., and Tank Dell, Houston's passing offense remains potent despite starting running back David Montgomery being ruled out.
Houston visits a winless Los Angeles squad as 4.5-point favorites. While the modest projected game total may temper overall passing volume, our model projects Stroud for roughly 197 passing yards, 1.3 touchdowns, and 17.8 fantasy points. Fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups as a dependable starting option.
