Flowers projects 64.5 yards but has red zone target share concerns despite elite usage.

Flowers projects for 64.5 receiving yards in Week 1 at Indianapolis. Over the past two seasons when Lamar Jackson has over five passes in a game, Flowers is WR13 in yards but WR47 in touchdowns per game. His target share in the red zone is only 15.7% versus 27.5% outside the red zone, suggesting new OC Declan Doyle may need to get him more involved in the end zone. The Ravens have the sixth-best team total (26.5 points) against a Colts defense that was third-worst against fantasy WRs last year and allowed the second-most passing yards per game. CB1 Sauce Gardner is returning from an Achilles tear and slot CB Justin Walley is making his NFL debut off an ACL tear, creating a favorable matchup in a domed environment.
