Ravens' Zay Flowers: Fifth-Year Option Likely
2 Mar
Summary
- Ravens expected to pick up Zay Flowers' fifth-year option.
- This option guarantees $27.298 million in 2027.
- Extension talks may be delayed due to other priorities.

The Baltimore Ravens are expected to take an unusual route regarding the future contract of wide receiver Zay Flowers. As he enters the final year of his rookie deal, the team's current plan appears to be picking up his fifth-year option. This option, a significant financial commitment, would ensure Flowers remains with the Ravens for the 2027 season.
This decision means Flowers is slated to earn $27.298 million in 2027, following a $2.664 million salary in 2026. It is common for teams to negotiate extensions before the fifth-year option deadline. However, reports suggest Baltimore may not pursue an immediate extension with Flowers. This is likely due to other pressing contract matters involving star quarterback Lamar Jackson and center Tyler Linderbaum, which are dominating the team's offseason focus.
