Significant offensive players for Ravens could be returning soon

By Armin Mesinovic | Last updated 11/17/22

The Baltimore Ravens' offensive weapons have been limited all year.

With key injuries to J.K. Dobbins and Rashod Bateman, the Ravens have struggled to stay healthy on offense. Mark Andrews and Gus Edwards have been out recently as they are hopeful to return against the Panthers.

Andrews has been Lamar Jackson's favorite go-to option since Jackson entered the league, and this season is no different.

Andrews has recorded 42 receptions for 488 yards receiving with five receiving touchdowns. Jackson has missed the impact of Andrews on the field the past two weeks and is hopeful to get his key receiver back against Carolina.

Update: Ravens TE Mark Andrews did practice today. He came out after media availability and was limited in practice.

It’s his first practice since injuring shoulder on Oct. 27.

Andrews and Edwards both had limited practice Wednesday and head coach John Harbaugh is optimistic for their return in Week 11.

"You talk to Mark, he sounds very positive – obviously – about it, and the trainers, as well," Harbaugh said. "We'll see how it progresses throughout the rest of the week," via Ryan Mink of the team's website.

With Andrews out, tight end Isaiah Likely has stepped up as he is emerging as a new weapon for Jackson. Likely has picked up two touchdowns in the last two games with seven receptions for 101 yards receiving.

The return of Andrews and Edwards is highly anticipated as the Ravens can get a major boost to their offense with having them back on the field.
