Fantasy Impact:
Andrews popped up on the injury report with a thigh issue this week but is in no danger of missing this intra-division matchup with a Bengals defense yielding the 11th fewest FPPG (6.5) to the enemy tight end. They haven't contained slouches either. The Cincinnati defense managed to hold Hunter Henry, Zach Ertz, Dallas Goedert, Austin Hooper, and Tyler Eifert, all normally heavily featured pass-catching tight ends outside of the latter, to fewer than 73 yards per game without a touchdown -- no tight end has scored against the Bengals in 2020 to date. Still, getting a familiar Cincinnati defense whom he's scored in 2-of-4 games against them including a 6/52/2 line in his last matchup, Andrews is a high-ceiling TE1 for Week 5. He is clearly Lamar Jackson's pseudo WR1 and should produce as such this week.
