Ravens tight end Mark Andrews had a brutal fourth quarter in Sunday’s loss to the Bills, losing a fumble and then dropping a game-tying two-point conversion attempt. After the game, coach John Harbaugh and quarterback Lamar Jackson both defended Andrews.
“There’s nobody that has more heart, and cares more, and fights more than Mark. We wouldn’t be here without Mark Andrews,” Harbaugh said. “Mark will handle it fantastic, like he always does, because he’s a high-character person, he’s a tough person and he’s a good person. I’m proud of him just like I am all the guys.”
Jackson pointed the finger at his own mistakes rather than anything Andrews did.
“We’re a team. First half I had two turnovers,” Jackson said when asked about Andrews. “It’s a team effort. He’s been busting his behind, making plays for us. . . . All of us played a part in this game. It’s a team effort. I’m not gonna put that on Mark because he’s been battling all season, he’s been doing great things all season.”
