On Sunday, the Baltimore Ravens put out a big update surrounding the availability of tight end Mark Andrews for their Week 9 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. The team announced that he has been downgraded from doubtful to out, an will not be traveling with the rest of the team.
Rookie tight end Isaiah Likely will likely get ample opportunities in place of Andrews, marking his first career start if he’s deemed as such. Likely stepped up big time when Andrews left Week 8 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, ending up with six receptions for 77 yards and his first career touchdown.

Quarterback Lamar Jackson is going to need to spread the football around without Andrews in the lineup. Jackson and Andrews have a special connection, so hopefully others can step up such as Likely, Devin Duvernay, James Proche and more.
