Ravens WR Zay Flowers testing hamstring in Brazil, looks good on field

Baltimore's top receiver is putting his hamstring to the test before the game against the Cowboys, with early signs positive as the team mulls its decision

Zay Flowers is on the field in Brazil, putting his hamstring to the test to see if he can play today against the Cowboys. Early signs are positive, with the Ravens' top receiver said to look good as the team mulls its decision.

Flowers has been dealing with a hamstring issue that kept him out of practice for a second straight day earlier this week, leaving his status for the international game in question. His presence on the field in Rio and the encouraging early reports suggest he's trending toward playing.

The decision carries real weight for Baltimore's offense. Flowers has been the Ravens' most productive receiver, and having him available against a Cowboys secondary that's already dealing with injuries would be a significant boost.

With the game set to kick off in Brazil, the Ravens will make a final call on Flowers' status. The early indication is that he's moving well and could be in line to play, though the team will continue to monitor him through warmups.
