Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (ankle) didn't have much to contribute after getting his ankle rolled up on and having to get it checked out on the sidelines. For a while, Flowers looked like he was in a lot of pain as he quickly hobbled to the sidelines and squirmed in pain. He did return to the game and finished with one reception for 11 yards and one carry for 19 yards. Fantasy managers will want to monitor his status with the ankle because it could have been the reason that he wasn't involved in a big passing game. The Ravens take on the Cleveland Browns in Week 8.

San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Ricky Pearsall made his NFL debut in a 28-18 home loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 7. The Arizona native came into the game as the assumed third option for quarterback Brock Purdy with Jauan Jennings (hip) ruled out, but inherited even more snaps after Brandon Aiyuk (knee) and Deebo Samuel (illness) left during the game. Pearsall missed the first six weeks of the season due to a gunshot wound and received a standing ovation from the home crowd after his first catch. He finished with three receptions on five targets for 21 yards. If Aiyuk has torn his ACL as feared, Pearsall will be worth a look on waivers, although the situation is muddied by the probable return of Jennings in Week 8, not to mention fellow rookie Jacob Cowing having a few games more experience and a more impactful performance today. Pearsall is the better bet long-term though, as San Francisco waited until the fourth round to take Cowing after taking Pearsall in the first. The 49ers get the Dallas Cowboys at home on Sunday Night Football in Week 8.
