Developments: 3. On August 3, 2026 the Baltimore Ravens confirmed a four‑year, $140 million extension for wide receiver Zay Flowers, guaranteeing $108 million and an average annual value of $35 million, tying him with Justin Jefferson for the fourth‑highest AAV among NFL wideouts and becoming the largest non‑quarterback deal in franchise history. The contract, which runs through the 2031 season, follows the team’s exercise of Flowers’ fifth‑year option for 2027 and reflects GM Eric DeCosta’s commitment to retain the player who has expressed a desire to stay in Baltimore. In 2025 Flowers posted 86 receptions for 1,211 yards and five touchdowns, accounting for 36.9 % of the Ravens’ total receiving output and marking his second consecutive 1,000‑yard season as quarterback Lamar Jackson’s primary target. Drafted 22nd overall in 2023, he has earned two Pro Bowl selections and is praised by head coach Jesse Minter for his work ethic, versatility and chemistry with the offense. ## Claims - Zay Flowers signed a four‑year contract extension with the Baltimore Ravens worth $140 million.
