Zay Flowers Fantasy Football Outlook (2025)

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Aug 14th 2025, 1:02pm EDT

Zay Flowers has settled in as a consistent WR3 for fantasy purposes, and I don't see that changing in 2025, especially with the addition of DeAndre Hopkins this offseason. Over the last two seasons, Flowers has been the WR31 and WR32 in fantasy points per game. He's outplayed expectations as he was the WR38 and WR33 in expected fantasy points per game in each season. Last year, among 85 qualifying receivers, he ranked 14th in target share (24.1%), 27th in receiving yards per game (62.3), 17th in yards per route run (2.35), 18th in first-read share (30%), and 20th in first downs per route run (per Fantasy Points Data). With the addition of Hopkins and an impending bounceback season for Mark Andrews, Flowers likely won't be leaping into WR2 territory this year and could regress into low-end WR3 territory.
