Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews has registered just one game with double-digit fantasy points this season in half-PPR formats. Even in a game where he received eight targets against the Kansas City Chiefs, he only finished with seven receptions for 30 yards, which comes to a measly 4.3 yards per catch. While Lamar Jackson (hamstring) may be back in this game, it doesn't instill the same confidence compared in past seasons. The Chicago Bears give up an average of 14.62 fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends, but they've only allowed two touchdowns to the position all season. Andrews remains in TE2 territory until he can prove to be a big part of the offense on a consistent basis again.

Las Vegas Raiders All-Pro tight end Brock Bowers (knee) has missed the last three games as he recovers from the bone bruise and PCL injury he sustained in the season opener, but according to head coach Pete Carroll, he's expected to return to the field following the team's Week 8 bye. The Raiders are coming off one of the worst offensive performances in recent history, managing fewer than 100 total yards in a 31-0 shellacking from the Kansas City Chiefs, so for multiple reasons, the bye week comes at a good time. Bowers caught five of eight targets for 103 yards in Week 1, but was clearly limited in his next three outings, lacking his trademark explosiveness as he played with a knee brace. Rather than risk further injury, the team made the decision to shut him down until he's fully healthy, and he is now in line to play in Week 9 against the Jaguars. While he may need to work himself back into game shape, he should still be inserted right back into starting lineups, as the upside he offers at the position is practically unmatched across the league.
