Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers has been ruled out for Saturday's wild-card round game against the Pittsburgh Steelers due to a knee injury.

Flowers didn't participate in practice all week. He suffered the ailment in Baltimore's season finale against the Cleveland Browns. Flowers collided with a Browns defender in the second quarter and never returned to the contest.

The 24-year-old has a chance of playing in the divisional round if the Ravens defeat the Steelers, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. He was considered a long shot to suit up Saturday earlier in the week.

Flowers is Baltimore's top wideout, racking up 116 targets, 74 catches, and 1,059 receiving yards in 17 games this season. Other Ravens wide receivers include Rashod Bateman, Nelson Agholor, and Tylan Wallace.
