News: 2 days agoAndrews caught three of five targets for 24 yards during Sunday's 34-31 win over the Cowboys.

Spin: Andrews was limited by a hand injury that he suffered in the second quarter, and he was on the field for only 33 of the team's 64 offensive snaps. The tight end has recorded at least three catches in each of the team's first three games, reeling in 13 of 18 targets for 122 yards so far this season. Andrews has yet to reach the end zone this year, and his next chance will come against the Titans in Week 4.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: One of fantasy's biggest mysteries, Andrews' usage has dipped substantially over the past two seasons. After finishing in the top five in fantasy PPG five seasons in a row from 2019 to 2023, Andrews slipped to eighth in 2024 (it would've been much worse if not for 11 touchdowns on 68 targets) and fell even further to 24th last season. Andrews appeared in all 17 of Baltimore's games but ranked 18th among tight ends in targets and outside the top 20 in catches and yards. The combination of a new coaching staff, a healthy Lamar Jackson and the departure of Isaiah Likely could lead to a rebound season for Andrews, but we now have two straight seasons of underperformance. The 31-year-old remains a force near the goal line (top 10 in end zone targets seven years in a row), but he's now more of a fringe TE1 than a fantasy star.
