Zay Flowers Injury Update and Status vs. the Browns in Week 8 | Oct. 27, 2024

Update

Wide receiver Zay Flowers is questionable to play in Week 8 against the Cleveland Browns due to an ankle injury. Flowers suffered the injury in the team's Week 7 win over the Baltimore Ravens.

Status

Flowers was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday. He is expected to be a game-time decision on Sunday.

If Flowers is unable to play, the Colts will likely turn to Parris Campbell and Alec Pierce as their starting wide receivers. Campbell has been dealing with a hamstring injury, but he is expected to be ready to play in Week 8.

Analysis

Flowers has been a key part of the Colts' offense this season. He leads the team in receiving yards (450) and touchdowns (5).

The Colts are hoping that Flowers will be able to play on Sunday, but they will have to prepare to be without him if he is unable to go.

Fantasy Impact

If Flowers is unable to play, he should be considered a risky start in fantasy football. Campbell and Pierce would be better options, but they are also not without risk.
