The challenge with the matchup is the Jaguars have been very good at stopping the short pass, limiting production on throws to WRs under 10 air yards to a No. 29 ranking. Some of that is having Travis Hunter on these quick in-breakers, and that size matchup wouldn't make me feel great about Flowers here. The Ravens have a sub-15.0 team total here. Flowers is a desperation WR2/3.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalMatchup

Jaguars' elite short-pass defense and Fagnano's limitations make Flowers a desperation WR2/3.

Fagnano is a big statue QB who made more plays than expected on tape, but there was a ton of bad luck on his throws to Flowers—a drop on a potential YAC opportunity over the middle, a pass knocked down by an EDGE, and a third-down rep where Flowers fell down instead of being a first-read target. The Jaguars have been very good at stopping the short pass, limiting production on throws to WRs under 10 air yards to No. 29 ranking. Travis Hunter on these quick in-breakers creates a size matchup that wouldn't inspire confidence. The Ravens have a sub-15.0 team total here. Flowers is a desperation WR2/3.
