Zay Flowers highlighted a renewed energy within the Ravens during the offseason, driven by a new coaching staff and roster changes. The focus is on learning and building relationships as the team prepares for the 2026 season.
Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers said this week that the team's offseason has taken on a different feel, citing the arrival of a new coaching staff and roster turnover as key factors behind increased positivity at the Under Armour Performance Center.
"There's a new energy. Everybody gets to restart with a new coaching staff. We lost a lot of people, and we're probably going to gain a lot of people at the same time. So, everybody is just learning at the same time and building a new bond and relationship with coaches that are excited to build relationships with us."
Flowers said the early stages of the offseason have centered on learning and communication, with players and coaches adjusting together as new systems are introduced.
As the roster continues to take shape, he indicated the group is focused on getting comfortable with the structure and building connections heading into the 2026 season. As the Ravens continue to reshape the roster and install new systems, the early emphasis on communication and relationship-building could pay dividends. With players and coaches growing together in real time, the foundation being built now may ultimately define how quickly Baltimore finds its rhythm and identity in 2026.
