Ravens’ Zay Flowers Criticizes Harbaugh Practices, Likes Lofty WR Comparison
- On Thursday's "4th and South" podcast, Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers attributed the team's high injury rate to former coach John Harbaugh's strenuous, pad-heavy practice regimen.
- Flowers explained that the team wore full pads for every allowed practice, continuing high-intensity one-on-ones even in Week 17, which he claimed left players fatigued and vulnerable to injury.
- Baltimore lost 183 total games to injury during the 2025 season, including a Week 5 matchup against the Houston Texans where the squad was missing seven Pro Bowl players.
- New head coach Jesse Minter has assured Flowers that practices will be easier on the body, aiming to keep the roster fresher throughout the season.
- Following Harbaugh's firing after an 8-9 season, Minter inherits a team that missed the playoffs for the first time since 2021, ending the coach's 18-year tenure in Baltimore.
