Ravens Star TE Mark Andrews Out for Week 1 Due to Lingering Quad Injury

Andrews sustained the injury during joint practices with the Commanders and missed 6 consecutive practices.
Andrews was listed as questionable on the injury report and did not participate in team drills during the week.
Second-year TE Isaiah Likely will start in Andrews' place for the Ravens' season opener against the Texans.
The Ravens are hopeful that resting Andrews this week will allow him to return for their Week 2 matchup with the Bengals.
Andrews has been one of QB Lamar Jackson's top targets since they entered the league together in 2018.
