Flowers has not been charged. This is an ongoing investigation.
"We take these matters seriously and will have no further comment at this time," the Ravens said in a statement.
WJZ is continuing to work with our sources to learn more about this.
When we have any new information, we'll be sure to bring it to you on air and CBS News Baltimore.
Flowers led the Ravens in receiving yards this past season with 858 yards and five touchdowns. He had 115 receiving yards and a touchdown in Baltimore's 17-10 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship.
He was selected by the Ravens 22nd overall in the 2023 NFL Draft out of Boston College.
If that's the case and there was a gun involved, that's one of those 'indefinite suspension of no less than a year' sort of things.
I mean not quite a career ender, but it's gonna be a bit before we see ol' Zay again...
At least on that claim I was reading through that RussellStreet forum and mistook the poster that made the orbital bone claim for the guy that originally posted the rumor a couple weeks ago, so that one may be bupkus. However, original OP DID say he was getting texts in real time from his source and it looks pretty grim for Flowers. [Reply]
Hopefully the Ravens will suspend him for 1 preseason game, the public will be outraged, the Ravens will handle it badly, and then the NFL will have to step in and suspend him for 2 years. [Reply]
