Who Should I Start? Mark Andrews or Colston Loveland

Saturday, November 8, 9:54 AM

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews finally broke through for a top-five finish at the position in Week 9 with two touchdowns against the Miami Dolphins. The Ravens' offense looks like it's already back on track with Lamar Jackson under center, but Andrews didn't particularly see a ton of targets in that Thursday night blowout. In fact, Isaiah Likely saw one more target and gained 38 more yards, but Andrews cashed in on the touchdowns. While the Minnesota Vikings present a favorable matchup, the uncertainty of Andrews' involvement is always the biggest risk. He projects as a borderline TE1 this week, but he's not exactly a surefire start like he has been in years past.

Chicago Bears rookie tight end Colston Loveland is coming off a huge performance, posting 118 yards and two touchdowns in the 47-42 win over Cincinnati. The breakout game finally arrived for the 10th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, beating his previous career high in yards by 80 yards. However, that surge came with veteran Cole Kmet leaving early due to a concussion. Kmet is off the injury report and set to return for Week 10 against the Giants. On the season, Kmet has played 70% of the snaps compared to Loveland's 56%, and his presence has consistently capped Loveland's routes and target share. With Kmet back in the mix and 25+ mph winds expected to limit the passing game, Loveland is a strong candidate for regression this week.
