Fantasy Life Articles on Zay Flowers
From the article
Flowers hasn't cleared 5 touchdowns yet in his career, and since entering the NFL in 2023, his 18 end-zone targets ranks 45th among all receivers. However, a change in offense could see more schemed red-zone usage for Flowers.
STACKED’s take
Flowers' WR12 finish masks touchdown scarcity; new OC Doyle may unlock red-zone upside.
Flowers posted a career-best season with 86 receptions, 1,211 receiving yards, and a 30% target share (career-high), finishing as WR12 on a PPG basis (14.3 PPG). However, he hasn't cleared 5 touchdowns in his career, and his 18 end-zone targets since 2023 rank 45th among all receivers, resulting in just four top-12 fantasy finishes last year and eight occasions outside the top-24. At 5-foot-9, 182 pounds, he's not ideal for the end zone, especially with Lamar Jackson targeting tight ends over 41% of the time in the red zone since 2023. A potential change in offensive scheme under new OC Declan Doyle (who worked with Ben Johnson in Chicago) could lead to more schemed red-zone usage for Flowers, similar to how Johnson's Lions offense featured Amon-Ra St. Brown on motion-based red-zone targets.
