The Cincinnati Bengals run a multiple defense with elements of the Seattle 4-3 under front and some 3-4 principles, emphasizing gap control and disciplined play.
Flowers projects as an immediate special teams contributor and potential rotational outside linebacker, with a ceiling as a starting strong-side or weak-side backer in a disciplined 4-3 scheme.
He would struggle as an inside linebacker in a two-gap 3-4 defense where his instincts and blitzing ability would be underutilized.
His athleticism and tackling ability make him a valuable asset in pursuit, but his coverage nuances and block shedding need refinement for a full-time defensive role.
