What happened: Flowers returned to practice Friday, five days after he was ruled out of Week 1 with a hamstring injury. Baltimore still enters Sunday with his availability in doubt for the Saints matchup.
Why it matters: That matters for a Ravens offense that has spent the week managing injuries at receiver ahead of its home opener. New Orleans opened Week 1 with 410 passing yards, raising the chance Baltimore will need production from its full passing game.
By the numbers: Timeline: Flowers was ruled out Sept. 13, exited Baltimore's Sept. 14 win over Indianapolis with a hamstring injury, and returned to practice Sept. 18. The Saints opened the season with 410 passing yards.
What to watch: Sunday's inactive list will confirm whether Flowers can dress. Baltimore's receiver rotation becomes an early focal point once those decisions are official.
