The Ravens wide receivers will be out in full force on Sunday night against the Chargers.
Receivers Odell Beckham Jr. and Zay Flowers are active active for the prime-time contest after spending the week rehabbing injuries.
Beckham, having sustained a shoulder injury during Week 11 against the Bengals, was absent from Wednesday’s practice and had limited participation on Thursday. Flowers, dealing with a hip injury, had limited involvement in Wednesday’s practice and was unable to participate on Thursday.
Beckham and Flowers were both fully involved in Friday’s activities and labeled as questionable for the upcoming matchup. However, fans can rest easy knowing they are ready to play.
The Ravens have already likely lost tight end Mark Andrews for the rest of the regular season after he injured his ankle last week. Andrews currently leads the Ravens in receiving touchdowns (six) and is a big loss for the offense.
Having Flowers in action bodes well for quarterback Lamar Jackson, considering the rookie receiver leads the Ravens in catches (53) and yards (588), though he has only scored one touchdown.
Jackson greatly benefits from Beckham’s presence on the field, particularly after Beckham’s performance against Cincy where he caught four passes for 116 yards, hinting at a return to his former prowess.
Currently, Baltimore is leading the AFC North and striving to maintain its position over the Kansas City Chiefs as the No. 1 seed in the AFC.
The Ravens, with an 8-3 record, and the Chargers, with a 4-6 record, will start their game at 8:20 p.m. ET.
