Ravens Place 2 Tight Ends in Top 10 ESPN Position Rankings<\/a> originally appeared on Athlon Sports<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Baltimore Ravens are ridiculous at tight end.<\/p>\n

It’s not rare for a team to boast a great tight end on the roster that’s an integral part of the team’s offense. That’s the whole point of this list.<\/p>\n

But … to have two at the same time?<\/p>\n

That’s where the Ravens are right now with Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely.<\/p>\n

Baltimore is the only team to place two tight ends on Jeremy Fowler’s list of ESPN’s top 10 tight ends<\/a> in the NFL ahead of the 2025 season.<\/p>\n

What’s more, the list was compiled by surveying NFL coaches, scouts and executives – the people who know the most about it.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0Mark Andrews,\u00a0Baltimore Ravens<\/p>\n

“Andrews held up in the voting despite declines in yards and catches per game compared to previous years. But he was highly efficient when\u00a0Lamar Jackson\u00a0looked his way,” Fowler wrote. “Andrews produced a 140.9 passer rating for his quarterback on 69 targets, with 55 catches for 673 yards, 11 touchdowns and 1 interception. The crucial end zone drop on a game-tying 2-point attempt late in the AFC divisional round loss to Buffalo is unfortunate, but doesn’t define his game.”<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0Isaiah Likely, Baltimore Ravens<\/p>\n

“Cracking the top eight as a TE2 is an impressive feat for Likely. But his profile in Baltimore is growing,” Fowler wrote. “He averaged 8.2 yards per target, ranking high within this tight end pool. His 4.3 yards of separation per route is also among the best for his position. Likely is a 2026 free agent, and though Baltimore has interest in re-signing him, he would have a fruitful open market waiting for him. Likely had 13 red zone targets, the most for any NFL tight end who isn’t the primary starter. He turned those targets into eight catches for 56 yards and five scores.”<\/p>\n
