Ravens ruled out TE Isaiah Likely for Thursday night’s game vs. the Bengals and list RB Keaton Mitchell as questionable.

Lamar Jackson is off the injury report and expected to start.

Related Players: Mark Andrews

Andrews has (re)solidified himself as the TE1 on the team, though he's still not quite as consistent as we would have liked after taking him as a top-3 option. He should be considered a low-end TE1 for TNF.

The Panthers get a 5th round pick. It didn't take the Panthers long after rumors were starting to circulate Johnson was in play. The landing spot in Baltimore is interesting to say the least. The big question is will the Ravens consistently throw the ball enough with Travis Henry and Lamar Jackson for Johnson, Flowers and Andrews to keep their fantasy value. It remains to be seen who takes the biggest hit to their value, but the odds seem to favor Flowers here. Meanwhile in Carolina, Thielen is about to return but it's likely time to see what Legette and Mingo can do for the Panthers and the future of their offense.

Bad news: Zay Flowers (ankle) and Marlon Humphrey (knee) still missing from Ravens practice on Thursday.

Good news: CB Nate Wiggins (shoulder) and DT Travis Jones (ankle) are back.

Things aren't trending in the right direction for Flowers' Week 8 availability, so we'll see if he can hit the field on Friday. Bateman can be considered a boom/bust WR3 this week, while Andrews is fully back in the top-7 conversation.

John Harbaugh: "Mark Andrews is definitely going to have big games catching the ball."

Andrews went his second straight week without producing a catch in the Ravens offense. With Travis Henry's output in Week 4, the Ravens didn't need to pass much. However at this point, it's hard not to be concerned with the lack of fantasy output from a player who was considered among the tops at his position. Owners may want to consider any other option in their lineup at TE, other than another potential zero. Andrews should come back to form, and the Ravens will likely need him to, but at this point, you may want to actually see if first before continuing to put him in lineups.

Ian Rapoport reported Ravens TE Mark Andrews was back at practice.

Andrews was in a car accident back in the middle of August and was dealing with something the team called "very minor." However, it kept Andrews out of practice up until recently. The team also said they would bring back Andrews slow after the accident. It has left owners wondering just what was going on with their star tight end, but with Andrews now practicing again, it looks like he should be good for Thursday's Week 1 opener.

Ravens tight end Mark Andrews remained out of practice on Monday.

Andrews was involved in a car accident last Wednesday and the team said that he suffered no “apparent injury” at the time. On Monday, however, head coach John Harbaugh said that Andrews is dealing with something “very minor” and the team will take it slow in bringing him back to the field.

Andrews is expected to travel with the team to Green Bay for joint practices with the Packers later this week. The Ravens will then close out the preseason against the Packers over the weekend, the story said. Harbaugh was quoted in the story, saying, "We’re not messing with it right now. Don’t worry about Mark."

Ravens TE Mark Andrews was involved in a car accident this morning. Ravens say that Andrews didn't sustain any apparent injuries.

We'll keep an eye on this situation, but it doesn't seem to be anything too serious for Andrews as it stands.

This offseason was different for Ravens tight end Mark Andrews.

After missing eight games last season with a severe ankle injury, he said he didn’t feel like himself again until late March or early April. He took up Pilates as he searched for unique ways to get back into form.

His 11 games in 2023 were his fewest as a pro as the veteran dealt with the first long-term injury of his career. The Ravens fared fine in his absence, but the void he left was obvious. Now Andrews, recuperated from the injury, enters his seventh training camp armed with a fresh perspective but the same optimism.

“I feel 100%,” Andrews said. “A lot better than I ever have.”

Since his rookie season, Andrews has never averaged less than 50 yards per game and has averaged 0.48 touchdowns per game in his last three seasons. If he can play 16 games at those rates, he’s looking at 800 yards and 7.7 touchdowns, according to our own John Paulsen. He's third on our TE list.

Andrews likely is out for the year, Garafolo added, with an outside chance of returning if Baltimore makes a deep playoff run. As we reported Monday, Coach John Harbaugh kept the door open for that possibility when he said “it wasn’t as bad as initially feared” immediately after the game after the MRI delivered “some optimism.” It looks like Andrews can be dropped in redraft leagues.

The Ravens aren’t closing the door on the possibility of tight end Mark Andrews returning to the lineup this season.

Andrews suffered a cracked fibula along with damage to ankle ligaments.

“Nothing’s completely definitive yet,” Harbaugh said. “My understanding is, in talking with our trainer and the doctors, it wasn’t as bad as initially feared after the game. . . . It’s a little cleaner than they thought based on the MRI. He’s gonna be involved with Dr. Anderson down there in Carolina next few days. We’ll know more There might be an outside chance he could get back at some point in time. We’ll just have to see how that goes and I don’t want to say that’s definitive by any stretch, but there is some optimism.” The story went on to

The story went on to say Andrews is still out indefinitely and it wasn't specific about when a possible return could be. At this point, it's hard to believe Andrews would make it back for the current fantasy season, but it seems possible if the Ravens make a long playoff run, Andrews could join them at some point. Just in case, owners may not want to completely cut ties with Andrews just yet, and if you can stash him on an IR spot, that may be the best move. Those without IR spots may want to still hold him and feel out any more news. At this point of the fantasy season, roster spots are valuable, however.
