Who Should I Start? Mark Andrews or Brian Robinson Jr.

Tuesday, February 25, 10:08 PM

Baltimore Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta pledged his support for tight end Mark Andrews at the NFL Combine on Tuesday, saying: "Mark is a great player . Mark will be in a ring if honor someday. I love having him on the team. We'll figure out all the roster machinations in the coming weeks but nobody is a bigger Mark Andrews fan than me." Andrews had an AFC Championship game to forget in the loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, losing a critical fumble and dropped a two-point conversion. The 29-year-old has just one year left on his deal with $11 million in non-guaranteed money. The Ravens could save $11 million on this year's salary cap if they were to cut him before his $4 million roster bonus is due on March 17. Although he has the support of the GM and has plenty of chemistry with quarterback Lamar Jackson, Andrews is turning 30 next month and saw Isaiah Likely take on a bigger role next to him in 2024.

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. tallied just 36 yards on 11 rushing attempts in the NFC title game. The Commanders played from behind throughout the game as the Eagles got out to an early lead. As a result, this put Robinson out of the game plan. However, when given the ball, the Alabama product was ineffective, averaging just 3.3 yards per carry. Last weekend, Robinson tallied 77 yards and two scores on 15 carries in their upset victory over the Detroit Lions. After averaging a solid 64 rushing yards per game during his first 10 games, Robinson saw his production decline over the back half of the season. Over his final seven games of the 2024 season, Robinson eclipsed 60 rushing yards in just two games and scored just two touchdowns. Given his inconsistent production, the Commanders will likely address this position in the offseason.
