Flowers apologized for leaving without speaking after the Ravens fell 17-3 to the Rams last week. He owned up to two key fumbles that swung the game. The wideout said he respects the job the media does and that it will not happen again. That stance matched what teammates and coaches ask for daily. It also offered a needed reset for a unit searching for rhythm.
The Baltimore Sun’s Brian Wacker posted on X (formerly known as Twitter), with on-site video, sharing the moment the former Boston College standout receiver addressed the media and framed it as a step toward accountability after Week 6.

ESPN’s Jamison Hensley shared his own video to the platform, capturing the receiver as he apologized and explained both turnovers from the Rams loss. The clip showed calm reflection and accountability, helping ease tension around the team.
“Ravens WR Zay Flowers apologized for leaving the locker room early and not talking to reporters after fumbling twice in the loss to the Rams.
Flowers then explained the fumbles.”

This matters beyond a headline. With the offense still sputtering and the team hoping to get its starting quarterback back before Week 8, Flowers’ move signals growth. It speaks to the standard head coach John Harbaugh preaches and reflects a locker room searching for direction. The group needs more of that edge and clarity. The next chance arrives in Week 8 vs. the Chicago Bears. If the ball security improves and the communication stays firm, the Ravens can shift the narrative from frustration to response.
