Flowers has only run 46 routes with Lamar Jackson on the field. On those routes, Flowers has caught 16 of 20 targets (43% TPRR) for 353 yards and two touchdowns. He was going to return close to first-round fantasy value. That isn't going to happen with Brissett, but it is going to help make sure this doesn't become a disastrous season. We also saw Flowers average 10.3 targets, 7.3 receptions, 85.3 yards, and 18.3 PPR PPG in Huntley's four starts.

Flowers loses elite upside but scheme keeps him in WR1 conversation with Brissett.

Flowers was on pace for first-round fantasy value with Lamar Jackson (46 routes, 16 of 20 targets caught, 43% TPRR, 353 yards, 2 TDs), but that elite season is now unlikely with Brissett. However, Flowers' scheme-dependent role—moving around the formation, seeing designed screens and backfield looks—makes him less quarterback-reliant. With Brissett able to sustain drives, Flowers averaged 10.3 targets, 7.3 receptions, 85.3 yards, and 18.3 PPR PPG in Tyler Huntley's four starts, positioning him as a strong WR2 with a legitimate chance at returning to WR1 status.
