Who Should I Start? Mark Andrews or Juwan Johnson

Tuesday, June 24, 11:21 PM

Rather than sulk about speculation that he'll be traded or released, Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews has gotten back to work this offseason and looks quick and healthy, according to The Athletic's Jeff Zrebiec. Andrews also hasn't complained publicly that he's set to play out the final year on a contract that he's outperformed, and instead has remained focused on getting ready for 2025. The 29-year-old did score a career-high 11 touchdowns in 17 regular-season games, but he caught just 55 passes for 673 yards and saw Isaiah Likely take on a bigger role in the offense. Oh, and he also ended the season with a crucial fumble and dropped two-point conversion in the playoff loss to Buffalo. Andrews will still be a favorite red-zone target for quarterback Lamar Jackson, but he'll also probably continue to lose valuable targets to Likely, making him a volatile, TD-dependent midrange TE1 in fantasy.

The New Orleans Saints re-signed tight end Juwan Johnson to a three-year deal worth over $30 million, sources tell FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Johnson was one of the top tight ends available on the open market this offseason and will return to the Saints after a career-best 50-548-3 line in 17 games (five starts) in his fifth year in the league in 2024. The 28-year-old can make as much as $34.5 million and will receive $21.25 million guaranteed. Even though Johnson had a career year with the Saints last year, he finished as the TE17 in half-point PPR scoring. The good news is that Johnson will return to the only team he's played for in his five NFL seasons and will continue working with veteran quarterback Derek Carr in new head coach Kellen Moore's system. The bad news is that Johnson will likely continue to be inconsistent from a fantasy perspective on a weekly basis as a TE2.
