NFL finds ‘insufficient evidence’ to punish WR who set Ravens’ rookie records
One of the best young players in the NFL won’t be disciplined for an off-field issue.
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers, who set team rookie records with 77 receptions and 858 receiving yards last season, was involved in a domestic violence investigation earlier this year.
“Following a review, the NFL concluded there was insufficient evidence to support a finding that Zay Flowers engaged in any activity that violated the NFL’s personal conduct policy,” the NFL said in a statement released Thursday. “There will be no action taken by the league and Flowers remains eligible to participate in all team activities.”
The decision comes two months after Baltimore County Police suspended a domestic violence investigation involving Flowers, who was never charged.
According to ESPN, a woman said she was involved in a “violent” domestic incident with an NFL player in Owings Mills, Maryland on Jan. 16.
Flowers, the No. 22 pick out of Boston College in the NFL draft a year ago, is expected to be Lamar Jackson’s go-to wide receiver this season.
