Who Should I Start? Mark Andrews or Isaiah Likely

Friday, October 31, 12:32 AM

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews caught two of his three targets for 22 yards and two touchdowns during Thursday's Week 9 win over the Miami Dolphins. The veteran tight end had relatively low involvement in the victory, but he was highly efficient in terms of scoring, converting both of his grabs into touchdowns. The 30-year-old now has 26 catches, 230 yards, and four touchdowns this season, which is a relatively underwhelming line through eight games. With that said, Andrews has scored four touchdowns through five games with Lamar Jackson under center, so perhaps the quarterback's return from a hamstring injury will give him a significant boost going forward. He ranks as a mid-range TE2 for Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely has seen minimal usage so far in 2025, recording five catches for 26 yards on five targets across four games played. However, three out of Likely's four games played this season have come with Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hamstring) sidelined. With Jackson expected to return in Week 9 against the Miami Dolphins, Likely could see his role in Baltimore's offense expand. Across 16 games with the Ravens in 2024, Likely recorded 42 catches for 477 yards on 58 targets. Likely still figures to split playing time with Ravens tight end Mark Andrews, which limits the upside of both players. However, in deep fantasy leagues, Likely could be a stash candidate off the waiver wire now that Baltimore's offense has its quarterback back.
