Players of the game
WR Zay Flowers: The Ravens’ first-round draft pick followed up a sensational summer with nine catches on 10 targets for 78 yards in his debut. Flowers also carried twice for nine yards as the busiest playmaker on the team.
CB Ronald Darby: Darby did an admirable job stepping in for the injured Marlon Humphrey with seven tackles, one for loss, and a pass defended. He and fellow cornerback Brandon Stephens kept plays in front of them and showed the punishing style the Ravens favor.
LB David Ojabo: The most picked apart player in preseason delivered one of the key defensive plays of the opener with a strip sack that put the Texans away for good.
