Zay FlowersWRBAL

Dwain McFarland highlights a historical pattern suggesting Flowers has a touchdown problem. From 2012 to 2024, eight wide receivers with 26+ routes per game (at least WR3 on their team) scored five or fewer touchdowns in their first three seasons, and zero of those players became regular 8+ TD scorers. DJ Moore, Jarvis Landry, and Kenny Stills managed only one spike season of 8+ TDs each. The cohort averaged 5 TDs per season in their prime years, suggesting Flowers may struggle to reach elite touchdown production despite high route volume.
