Mark Andrews Seeks Redemption in Critical 2025 Season with Baltimore Ravens

A Season of Redemption

Mark Andrews’ 2024 season concluded with a disappointing finish, but the Ravens tight end is eager to turn the page and capitalize on the opportunity to return to Buffalo.

2024 Performance and Future Outlook

Despite recording 11 touchdowns in 2024, Andrews managed just 673 yards on 55 catches in 17 games, with his 39.6 yards per game marking his lowest average since his rookie season in 2018.

This upcoming season holds particular significance for Andrews, who turns 30 this week. All three tight ends on the Ravens’ 53-man roster — Andrews, Isaiah Likely, and Charlie Kolar — are set to become free agents next spring.

Contract Year Implications

Regarding his future with the team, Andrews referenced GM Eric DeCosta’s statement that the organization is “in the business of keeping great players,” while acknowledging the business aspect of the NFL. “You can’t be surprised by anything, but I’m a Raven,” Andrews stated. DeCosta notably mentioned that while he isn’t in the business of letting go of good players, “you just never know.”

Looking Ahead

Andrews maintains significant value due to the limited depth at the tight end position. The Ravens boasted one of the NFL’s top offenses in 2024, with quarterback Lamar Jackson throwing 41 passing touchdowns. The team enters 2025 seeking redemption after their playoff exit, presenting Andrews with numerous opportunities to make an impact.

As Andrews himself declared, “I know the type of player that I am, what I can do… I’m looking forward to redemption.”
