BALLER MOVE: Add and start in all formats on Thursday Night Football
ROSTERED IN: 89% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: It’s been a slow start to the 2024 season for Ravens tight end Mark Andrews, and fantasy managers are feeling the patience test. With just 24 receptions for 289 yards and four touchdowns, Andrews isn’t delivering his usual elite production.
Part of it is due to Baltimore’s formula this season—their strong defense and dominant ground game have kept pass attempts down, limiting Andrews’ opportunities to make an impact. Add in the fact that the Ravens are sitting comfortably in most games, and there’s just not the same volume for Andrews to work with.

Of course, there’s more to the story here. Andrews is coming off a broken fibula that ended his 2023 season, and he had a car accident over the summer, which could still be affecting his play. Between the injury recovery and the overall conservative game plan, Andrews is off to a slower start than we’re used to seeing.
Fellow tight end Isaiah Likely (hamstring) is going to miss TNF against the Bengals in Week 10, which should create more confidence in starting Andrews this week.
