Mark Andrews goes for 49 yards in win over Colts

Andrews practiced in full with the hand injury last week before posting a 5/27/1 receiving line. He should be good to go again this week, though he is a low-end TE1, with backup QB Tyler Huntley likely starting in Week 5.

Andrews continues to see most of his work come in the short area of the field. He’s gone for less than 30 yards in each of his last two games, but did manage to haul in a three-yard score in the second quarter of Sunday’s win for his first touchdown of 2026. Lamar Jackson also missed Andrews in the end zone on a high throw earlier in the game, but he remains a very touchdown-dependent option as far as fantasy is concerned. He’s a boom-or-bust play in Week 5 against the Falcons.

The Ravens seemingly forgot about Andrews when they first posted their injury report, only noting his injury and status in a post 40 minutes after the initial run. In their defense, Andrews has been pretty forgettable this year, catching 13 passes for 122 scoreless yards. The hand injury shouldn’t be an issue this week, but he’s still stuck in the TE2 ranks versus Tennessee.

Andrews missed part of this game with a hand injury but returned to catch two passes for a total of 15 yards in the second half. Andrews has yet to find the end zone this season and hasn’t gone for more than 49 yards in a game. There’s not much for fantasy managers to rely on here heading into next week’s game against the Titans.

Andrews returned to the field midway through the quarter. He saw three targets before leaving the game in the first half, but it seems unlikely he will see many more targets at this point. The Ravens have attempted just 11 passes through nearly three full quarters of play.

We’re not quite sure what happened here, but Andrews was not on the field for the Ravens’ fifth drive of the game, with the team announcing soon after that he would be questionable to return. The veteran tight end caught 1-of-3 targets for nine yards before exiting.

Andrews was targeted four times on the Ravens’ first four possessions, with his biggest play coming on a 10-yard reception to start a drive that ended with a Derrick Henry touchdown. Andrews caught a 14-yard reception on the Ravens’ final drive of the game as they tried to mount a comeback, but the drive ended on an interception by Lamar Jackson three plays later. Andrews has caught 10 passes for 98 scoreless yards on 13 targets through his first two games. It’s decent production for a tight end, but he continues to look like a shell of the player he once was. He’ll be a boom-or-bust TE2 in Week 3 against the Cowboys.

Flowers entered the season at the tail end of a rehab program for the hamstring strain he suffered on August 31st. He logged two full practice sessions before dominating the Colts early on in Week 1. Unfortunately, Flowers balled too hard, aggravating the hamstring injury in the process. He is unlikely to play this week, but his return to practice today is a great sign for his Week 3 availability. The Ravens placed WR Ja’Kobi Lane (wrist) on injured reserve this week. This means WRs Rashod Bateman, Elijah Sarratt and Devontez Walker could be asked to step up, although TE Mark Andrews will probably serve as the team’s top pass-catching option.

Early reports regarding Flowers’ health and Week 2 availability were positive, but two missed practices put him firmly in the questionable camp, with a lean toward sitting. Flowers and TE Mark Andrews banked six targets apiece last week and were the only Ravens who cleared three. With WR Ja’Kobi Lane (wrist) on injured reserve, Andrews should handle another sizable workload. Ravens WRs Elijah Sarratt and Devontez Walker should both be active if Flowers sits.

It’s possible Flowers gets in some light work after the media portion of the practice, but this should go down as a DNP. Flowers left the Ravens’ Week 1 win over the Colts in the first half. He already had 150 yards and a touchdown to his name. The hamstring issue isn’t believed to be serious, but the team may want to take a cautious approach and hold him out for a week. With Ja’Kobi Lane out because of a broken wrist, Rashod Bateman and Mark Andrews would be the top targets for Lamar Jackson if Flowers is also sidelined.
