With their stiff test against the Browns&#8217; defense looming, the Ravens appear on track to have standout wide receiver\u00a0Zay Flowers\u00a0in the lineup.<\/p>\n<div class=\"aspect-video w-full\">\n<div class=\"not-prose flex aspect-video w-full items-center justify-center\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>After missing the first two practice sessions of the week, Flowers was\u00a0present and practiced\u00a0on Friday according to ESPN reporter Jamison Hensley. Per Hensley, Flowers was upbeat, running onto the field and \u201cdancing off to the side\u201d before drills even began. Considering the 24-year-old was dealing with an ankle injury, his progression is a positive sign for his Week 8 availability.<\/p>\n<div class=\"not-prose align-center\">\n<div class=\"min-w-[300px] overflow-x-hidden text-center font-secondary uppercase my-2.5 min-h-[280px] md:min-h-[250px]\">\n<div id=\"content_1\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The second-year wideout is currently Lamar Jackson&#8217;s top target, leading the team in all major receiving categories. Through seven games, Flowers has posted 34 catches on 49 targets for 412 receiving yards and one touchdown.<\/p>\n<p>For as successful as Flowers has been, he was limited by his ankle in Week 7 to just one catch for 11 yards. The Boston College alum faces potentially his toughest matchup on paper in Week 8 against the Browns&#8217; cornerback duo of Denzel Ward and Greg Newsome II.<\/p>\n<p>Along with Flowers, Baltimore is optimistic that key defenders Marlon Humphrey and Travis Jones will be available for Week 8. Humphrey is questionable with a knee injury, and Jones is out nursing his ankle.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Ravens seek sixth straight win in Week 8<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3091514\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3091514\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3091514\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Zay-Flowers.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Zay-Flowers.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Zay-Flowers.jpg?resize=300,169 300w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Zay-Flowers.jpg?resize=768,432 768w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Zay-Flowers.jpg?resize=1024,576 1024w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Zay-Flowers.jpg?resize=150,84 150w\" alt=\"Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (4) looks on from the field prior to the AFC Championship football game against the Kansas City Chiefs at M&amp;T Bank Stadium.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3091514\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tommy Gilligan-Imagn Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If Flowers is able to suit up in Week 8, the Ravens should be in prime position to continue their recent hot streak and improve to 6-2 on the year.
