The Baltimore Ravens will host the New England Patriots in Week 16. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding TE Mark Andrews.
Is Andrews Playing in Week 16?
Andrews is not on the injury report and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Ravens’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Andrews in Week 16?
Mark Andrews caught the first pass of the game for the Ravens and while I still think Isaiah Likely is the right direction to go for this team, I hoped that the early involvement would give us some clarity down the stretch of the season.
Instead, it seemed to be nothing more than a random occurrence.
Andrews caught one more pass for the rest of the game against a Bengals defense that has largely ignored guarding the position in any capacity for the past 15 months and split 20 routes for the game with Likely.
That’s now five straight games without a score for the touchdown reliant veteran and, fun fact, he has just one Sunday TD this season.
The NFL flexed this game to Sunday night and while I think it’ll be a fun one, I can say with 100% certainty that I will not have any exposure (annual or DFS showdown) to the tight end position for either team.
