The Baltimore Ravens have been blessed with great talent at tight end over the course of their 25-year history. One of those players is Mark Andrews, who has become known as not only one of the best players at his position, but arguable the best in team history. The Pro Bowler’s latest performance has put himself in the record books once again.
In Week 18 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Andrews notched the all-time franchise record for receptions with 104, passing former Ravens wide receiver Derrick Mason, who had 103 during the 2007 season.
Another record for @Mandrews_81
SINGLE-SEASON RECEPTIONS RECORD
— Baltimore Ravens (@Ravens) January 9, 2022
Andrews notched the record on a 10-yard catch from quarterback Tyler Huntley late in the second quarter.
Andrews has become the team’s favorite target no matter who is taking snaps at quarterback. Andrews currently has five games of over 100 receiving yards this season. With talented wide receivers like Marquise Brown, Rashod Bateman and Sammy Watkins on the team, it makes the record that much more impressive.
Andrews has arguably established himself as one of the best tight ends in the league. He will most certainly go down as one of the best tight ends in team history and may one day find himself a gold jacket in Canton, Ohio.
