On Sunday, Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews further cemented himself in the franchise's record books. During the first quarter of the Ravens' game against the New York Giants, quarterback Lamar Jackson found Andrews up the seam with a 13-yard strike for a touchdown to give the Baltimore a 7-0 lead.

The score was the 48th touchdown of Andrews' career, breaking the old Ravens record held by legendary running back Jamal Lewis, who has 47 according to Jamison Henley of ESPN.

Andrews has been a pillar of this era of Ravens football, and he is finally finding his footing this season after coming off of a serious leg injury that ended his 2023-24 season. Now, he is back to being a reliable target for Jackson over the middle of the field and one of the elite red zone threats in the NFL, which this record exemplifies.

The Ravens quickly added another touchdown against an overmatched Giants team on a long pass from Jackson to Rashod Bateman to take a 14-0 lead. The Ravens are looking to stay on track ahead of a massive tilt against the Pittsburgh Steelers next Saturday that could end up deciding who wins the AFC North.

Andrews had a very slow start to his season coming off of the injury, but he has rebounded to put together yet another solid season for the Ravens. Entering Sunday, the former Oklahoma star had caught 43 passes for 490 yards. Sunday's touchdown was his eighth score through the air of the season, a mark that leads the team.

The Ravens will need Andrews to continue playing at a high level if they want to make a deep run in the playoffs. The trade for Diontae Johnson appears to have not worked out, so the Ravens are still hurting for pass catchers as they push toward the playoffs. Bateman has improved a lot this season and Zay Flowers is still a quality receiver, but Andrews is their only big-bodied pass catcher.

Shortly before halftime, the Giants got on the board with a touchdown of their own to cut the Ravens' lead to 14-7.
