Fantasy Impact:

Rumors have swirled regarding Andrews’ playing status for the 2020 season knowing he deals with Type 1 Diabetes. He confirmed though on Wednesday that he plans to play. Andrews said, “we’ve got a big year coming up. I want to be able to do a lot of things, and...just being able to help this team win is exciting for me.” After finishing the 2019 season as the second-highest producing fantasy tight end behind just Travis Kelce, Andrews is in line for a fantastic 2020 working with QB Lamar Jackson. Should you be so inclined to handcuff Andrews, Nick Boyle is the guy to own as his backup in Baltimore.
