Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers has been nominated for the NFL’s Rookie of the Week honor for Week 1.

Flowers is among six players who are up for the honor, and he is one of three wideouts who were shortlisted for it.

Fans can vote for the winner on NFL.com.

Flowers put together a promising performance in his NFL debut. The former Boston College standout recorded nine catches for 78 receiving yards against the Houston Texans. He was also called upon on the ground, tallying two rush attempts for nine rushing yards.

Flowers sure made life quite difficult for Houston’s secondary in Week 1.

Flowers is now set to meet the Cincinnati Bengals' secondary in Week 2. No Cleveland Browns player managed to log at least 50 receiving yards against Cincinnati’s secondary on Sunday.

Overall, the Bengals boast a 4-1 record in their last five encounters with the Ravens, including the playoffs.
