The Baltimore Ravens clinched their second straight AFC North divisional title on Saturday night after a 35-10 win over the Cleveland Browns. However, this win came at a price, as they lost their leading wide receiver, Zay Flowers, to an injury.
With the win, the Ravens finished the season with a 12-5 record and have secured the No. 3 seed in the NCF.
The Ravens were dominant against the Browns, and their star quarterback, Lamar Jackson, delivered another stellar performance. The reigning NFL MVP threw for 217 yards and two touchdowns while adding 63 rushing yards on nine carries.
Baltimore’s running back Derrick Henry also had a big night. Henry finished the game with 138 rushing yards and two TDs.
The Ravens will now turn their attention to next weekend when they are set to host the NFC wild-card game. They will hope that Flowers can be on the field after suffering a knee injury against the Browns.
Flowers got hurt in the second quarter following a 12-yard catch. He was examined by the medical staff after the play and eventually ruled out.
According to Ravens’ head coach Jim Harbaugh, Flowers, who was recently named to the Pro Bowl, will get an MRI on Sunday to determine the severity of his injury. Flowers made 74 catches for 1,059 yards and four touchdowns in 2024.
“It’s something that he has a chance to be OK with,” Harbaugh shared.
