Ravens TE Mark Andrews is the ultimate teammate

From saving lives to catching NFL touchdowns, Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews continues to pride himself on being the ultimate teammate.

Thanks to offensive coordinator Todd Monken and quarterback Lamar Jackson’s intuitiveness, Andrews finished week six with an average of 22 yards per catch on just three receptions. Teammate Zay Flowers had already been running circles around the Washington Commanders’ defense when Andrew caught a 13-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter to take the lead—a lead the Ravens wouldn’t surrender for the remainder of the game.

What Andrews relishes most about his role is the inevitable impact he’s destined to have, whether working as a pass catcher or run blocker. Running back Derrick Henry tallied up 132 total yards on the ground Sunday, and Andrews was part of an ensemble of blockers carving the way.

With an offensive unit that looks basically unstoppable, Andrews’ energy and selfless approach exemplify leadership in the team locker room.
