Flowers is believed to have suffered a sprained knee in Saturday's 35-10 win over the Browns, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Flowers will undergo an MRI on Sunday to confirm the injury and determine the extent of it, but Rapoport adds that there's a real chance the receiver misses the Ravens' wild-card playoff game next weekend. If Flowers is indeed unable to play next week, the Ravens could lean even more on the Derrick Henry-led ground attack, if Baltimore is able to hold down a lead for most of the day. Flowers carried once for nine yards and recorded one catch for 12 yards on two targets while playing just 14 snaps before exiting Saturday's contest.

Jeudy recorded six receptions on 13 targets for 63 yards in Saturday's 35-10 loss to the Ravens.

As has been the case since Jameis Winston was benched, all of Cleveland's skill-position players have found it difficult to post strong stat lines. Positively, Jeudy commanded 13 targets on 34 total pass attempts by the Browns quarterbacks. However, that translated to a modest yardage total, boosted only because he had a 30-yard reception with just over three minutes left in the fourth quarter with the game well out of reach. Jeudy wraps up his best season as a pro with 1,229 yards and 90 receptions and figures to be a key figure in the Cleveland offense again in 2025.

Following Saturday's win over the Browns, coach John Harbaugh said Flowers (knee) will undergo an MRI on Sunday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Flowers took a hit to the knee versus Cleveland and was later ruled out for the remainder of the contest after catching one of his two targets for 12 yards. Harbaugh said there's a "chance" Flowers will be ready for the start of the playoffs next weekend, Zrebiec added. If Flowers is unable to play in the wild-card round, Rashod Bateman, Nelson Agholor, Tylan Wallace and Devontez Walker would be in line to soak up Baltimore's receiver snaps.

The Packers added Doubs to their injury report Saturday, listing him as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Bears due to an illness, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Green Bay already may be without its top vertical threat in Christian Watson (knee) in Week 18, and now the status of perhaps QB Jordan Love's most-trusted option in Doubs is up in the air. With Watson sidelined last Sunday at Minnesota, Doubs was targeted 11 times and turned them into seven catches for 58 yards. Doubs' status for Sunday's matchup will be confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Jones (groin) is inactive for Saturday's game against the Steelers.

Jones was limited in practice all week due to a groin injury, and it appears he hasn't progressed enough in his recovery to play in Saturday's regular-season finale. He'll end the regular season with one catch for five yards across eight games. Kendric Pryor and Isaiah Williams will serve as Cincinnati's return options on kickoffs and punts due to Jones' absence.

Higgins (ankle/knee) is listed as active Saturday at Pittsburgh.

Higgins tended to ankle and knee injuries for a second straight week, and a questionable designation for Week 18 action followed three consecutive limited listings on Bengals practice reports. He again will play through those health concerns, and if his performance (11-131-3 on 12 targets) last Saturday against the Broncos is any indication, he's in tune with QB Joe Burrow at the moment, even if Higgins is operating at less than 100 percent. Higgins will be taking on a Steelers defense this Saturday that has given up the 11th-most YPT (8.22) to opposing wide receivers this season.

Flowers (knee) won't return to Saturday's game versus the Browns.

Flowers was seen grabbing at his right knee following a 12-yard catch in the second quarter and was tended to on the field for some time before walking slowly to the sideline tent and eventually the locker room. He was ruled out after halftime, and with Nelson Agholor a healthy scratch Saturday, the Ravens' receiving corps currently is composed of Rashod Bateman, Tylan Wallace, Devontez Walker and Steven Sims.

The 49ers elevated Taylor from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

It's the second time Taylor has been elevated to the active roster this season, with the first taking place for Week 5 against the Cardinals. He'll give San Francisco another return option on special teams and provide depth at wide receiver for Sunday's regular-season finale against Arizona.

Flowers suffered a knee injury during Saturday's game against the Browns.

Flowers remained on the turf after a 12-yard catch in the second quarter, holding his right knee while in visible pain. He was attended to for multiple minutes before making his way slowly to the sideline tent and eventually the locker room, at which point the Ravens deemed him questionable to return. If he's unable to re-enter the contest, Flowers will end Week 18 with the aforementioned reception and one carry for nine yards.

The Lions activated Raymond (foot) from injured reserve Saturday.

Raymond was a full participant in practice this week, and while he's still listed as questionable for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Vikings, all signs point to him playing. He has been on injured reserve since late November due to a foot injury he suffered against the Colts in Week 12. Raymond's return Sunday gives the Lions another punt return option and depth at wide receiver behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams.
