Zay Flowers Week 10 Outlook - Bengals at Ravens

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Nov 7th 2024, 1:05pm EST

Call it negligence by Denver or smart planning by Baltimore. Both arguments have their merit, but Flowers destroyed the Denver secondary in Week 9 as Surtain only followed him on 26% of his routes, and Flowers was in the slot for 60% of his snaps. Surtain has moved to the slot some this season to guard wide receivers, but not nearly at that clip. Flowers has been on a heater and has pulled his season-long ranking up to WR18 in fantasy points per game. He has surpassed 18 PPR points in five games this season. Flowers has been amazing, with at least 100 receiving yards in four of his last five games. Flowers STILL has zero red zone targets since Week 2. Overall, he has seen a 25.8% target share and 30.1% first-read share, producing 2.57 YPRR and 72.7 receiving yards per game. Since Week 4, Cincy has utilized single high with 57.4% of their defensive snaps. Against single high, Flowers has seen his numbers explode with a 31.8% target share, 3.69 YPRR, and a 33% first-read share. Flowers should crush again this week against a secondary that has allowed the eighth-most fantasy points per game to perimeter wide receivers.
