Ravens reportedly pick up fifth-year option on Pro Bowl wideout Zay Flowers
Zay Flowers is sticking with the Ravens through the 2027 NFL season.
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers has shown immense potential, and the ability to make game-breaking plays down the field in his first three seasons in the NFL. Because of that, the Ravens reportedly picked up Flowers’ fifth-year option Thursday, per multiple reports . The move was expected, as Flowers has exceeded 1,000 yards and made the Pro Bowl in each of the past two seasons.
With the decision, Flowers will remain in Baltimore through the 2027 NFL season. After making $2. 6 million in 2026, Flowers’ salary will jump to roughly $27 million in 2027 due to the option.
After being selected with the No. 22 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Flowers developed into the team’s top receiving option. He showed off his potential as a rookie, going for 858 yards and five touchdowns, which earned him some down-ballot Rookie of the Year votes.
He’s improved each year since then. During his second season, Flowers finished with 1,059 receiving yards and four touchdowns. That performance was enough to push Flowers into the Pro Bowl, making him the first wideout in team history to receive that honor.
