Ravens Sign Zay Flowers to Four-Year, $140 Million Extension

The deal secures Flowers as Lamar Jackson’s primary receiving weapon and shapes Baltimore’s salary-cap and roster planning through 2031.

Overview

  • The Ravens and two-time Pro Bowler Zay Flowers agreed to a four-year, $140 million extension that includes $108 million guaranteed, a deal reported and announced on Tuesday.
  • At a $35 million average annual value Flowers now ties for fourth among NFL wide receivers by yearly pay and ranks near the top of the position for guaranteed money.
  • The extension replaces the fifth-year rookie option Baltimore picked up in April and keeps Flowers under team control through the 2031 season.
  • Flowers earned the contract after back-to-back Pro Bowl seasons and a career-best 2025 with 86 catches for 1,211 yards, establishing him as Lamar Jackson’s clear top target.
  • Team leaders framed the move as preserving offensive continuity while removing near-term negotiation risk, a choice that will affect the Ravens’ cap flexibility and roster construction this season.
