The Ravens retooled their offensive arsenal this offseason in the form of two shiny new wide receivers (Zay Flowers and Odell Beckham Jr.), but The Athletic’s Jeff Zrebiec anticipates TE Mark Andrews to continue to be Lamar Jackson’s top target in the passing game based on what he’s seen in camp.
With the Ravens switching over from the run-heavy scheme of former OC Greg Roman to what projects to be a more balanced attack with Todd Monken, an increased reliance on the passing game could be just what the doctor ordered to help Mark Andrews bounce back from a down year in 2022.
Andrews is one of two TEs in the league that profile as the top receivers in their respective offenses (Travis Kelce being the other), so even with additional competition for targets, the expectation for Andrews should be yet another Top-5 finish, with the potential to challenge Kelce for the top spot if Lamar continues to prioritize Andrews int he pecking order.
