In the public eye, Andrews’s future with the team has been questionable for quite some time. His untimely drop in the Divisional Round of this year’s playoffs and the steady emergence of young tight end Isaiah Likely begs questions about his future. DeCosta spoke on this matter with Baltimore reporters at a recent press conference.

“I never know what’s going to happen,” DeCosta said. “And I would never want to say this or that. But I can tell you this: Mark Andrews is a warrior. He’s played his butt off for us.”

Though this quote isn’t overly negative, in this business, general managers and coaches alike have every reason to speak highly of their players to the press. Any deviation or ounce of doubt turns heads. Andrews turns 30 at the start of the 2025 NFL season and is entering the final year of his current contract. The three-time Pro Bowler had a slow start to his 2024 regular season but finished the campaign with 11 touchdowns and was 3rd on his team in receiving yards. Still a quality player with some gas left in the tank, Andrews will likely find a starting role if traded.
