Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens are coming off a 41-23 win over the Indianapolis Colts to open the 2026 NFL regular season. Indianapolis quarterback Daniel Jones completed 19 of 31 passes for 166 passing yards to go along with a touchdown and an interception.
The running backs stole the show, with Colts star Jonathan Taylor tallying 98 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries and Ravens star Derrick Henry putting up 144 rushing yards and three touchdowns on 24 carries. Flowers, coming off a four-year, $140 million contract this offseason, put up 150 receiving yards and a touchdown before halftime, leaving the game early due to a hamstring injury.
Star offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley played through the entire game but has missed practice this week due to a toe injury sustained in the season opener. With Ravens stars like offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley and Flowers banged up after the matchup, eyes are on the status of players ahead of this weekend’s game against the New Orleans Saints.
On the social media website X, The Athletic’s Jeff Zrebiec reported that the 6-foot-6 offensive tackle returned to practice in full uniform today. The 32-year-old had missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday earlier this week. The Ravens will feel more settled for the season with the return of the All-Pro protector of Jackson.
“Ronnie Stanley also is in uniform for practice,” Zrebiec wrote on X.
