Mark Andrews Leads Ravens In Receiving
Mark Andrews finished with 73 yards off eight catches during the win over Chicago on Sunday. Without Lamar Jackson (illness) or Marquise Brown (thigh) in the lineup, the 26-year-old got some extra work by serving as backup signal-caller Tyler Huntley's primary target. With this one in the books, Andrews and the Ravens will host the visiting Browns in Week 12. While Andrews is always a must-start option, his stock will rise even more if Brown can't make it back.

Ravens Non-Committal On Mark Andrews' Status With Team
Mark Andrews is one of the best players in franchise history, collecting 436 receptions for 5,530 yards and 51 touchdowns in 104 games across seven NFL seasons. However, the three-time Pro Bowler's status with the team for 2025 has been a topic of discussion this offseason, and general manager Eric DeCosta declined to definitively say he would be on the team next season. "I never know what's going to happen, but I can tell you this, Mark Andrews is a warrior," DeCosta said. He's a great player and we're in the business of keeping as many great players as we can." Andrews is entering his age-29 season and posted his lowest yardage total last year (minimum 11 games) since his 2018 rookie campaign. Whether he is potentially traded or released, uncertainty remains for the veteran, who is usually a TE1 in fantasy football.

Ravens Expect Mark Andrews Back In 2025
Mark Andrews to play for us next year. He's just too good of a player." Harbaugh said he's been in touch with Andrews this offseason and that he's in a good place after a costly fumble and a dropped two-point conversion in the team's Divisional Round loss to the Buffalo Bills in the postseason. The 29-year-old had a $4 million roster bonus kick in for the 2025 season in the middle of March, so all expectations are that the veteran tight end will return to the team this fall. Despite his rough finish to last year, Andrews did bring in a career-high 11 touchdowns in 2024 on 55 receptions (69 targets) for 673 receiving yards in 17 regular-season games (13 starts). Although he's turning 30 this year and Isaiah Likely is a threat to his overall upside, Andrews did finish as the TE1 in half-PPR scoring last season.

Mark Andrews Unlikely To Be Cut
Mark Andrews had his $4 million roster bonus picked up over the weekend. The veteran tight end is heading into his final year of his contract with the Ravens. There was speculation that the Ravens would move on from Andrews after his recent playoff struggles. Despite that, the Ravens appear to continue to ride with Andrews until a legit trade offer comes in. The three-time All-Pro tight end has seen his stats take a dip over the last few seasons. However, Andrews still hauled in 55 receptions for 673 yards and a career-high 11 touchdowns in 17 games with the Ravens last season. It appears the Ravens aren't going to let a few mistakes in the playoffs end their relationship with Andrews.

Ravens Standing Behind Mark Andrews
Mark Andrews at the NFL Combine on Tuesday, saying: "Mark is a great player…. Mark will be in a ring if honor someday. I love having him on the team. We'll figure out all the roster machinations in the coming weeks but nobody is a bigger Mark Andrews fan than me." Andrews had an AFC Championship game to forget in the loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, losing a critical fumble and dropped a two-point conversion. The 29-year-old has just one year left on his deal with $11 million in non-guaranteed money. The Ravens could save $11 million on this year's salary cap if they were to cut him before his $4 million roster bonus is due on March 17. Although he has the support of the GM and has plenty of chemistry with quarterback Lamar Jackson, Andrews is turning 30 next month and saw Isaiah Likely take on a bigger role next to him in 2024.
