The Los Angeles Rams could use more help at tight end and the Baltimore Ravens might have one available at the trade deadline.
The Rams haven't gotten much out of their tight ends in 2025. Tyler Higbee has just 121 receiving yards through six games and no other tight end on the Rams' 53-man roster has more than 59. It also wouldn't hurt to add someone who can block.
Trade rumors have swirled around Ravens tight end Mark Andrews all year long, and understandably so, as the veteran and former Pro Bowler is a free agent next year and doesn't figure to remain with the team beyond 2025.
Brad Gagnon of Bleacher Report has connected the Rams and Ravens in a trade prediction that sends Andrews to Los Angeles for a "middle-round pick."
It's a walk year for Andrews, and the Ravens might look to get something for the veteran now before committing long-term to the younger Isaiah Likely in the offseason. Meanwhile, the Rams could use another veteran weapon to support their top two receivers for a potential playoff run.
The Ravens aren't waving the white flag despite their brutal first half of the season, but that doesn't mean Andrews won't be traded.
Baltimore actually has the horses at tight end to trade Andrews and not skip a beat with Isaiah Likely and Charlie Kolar behind him, so moving Andrews wouldn't be that big of a hit to the offense.
In Los Angeles, the Rams would have a top-tier tight end duo with Andrews and Higbee, and the former would be an upgrade for Matthew Stafford and the pass attack, and we know Andrews is a strong blocker, also.
The Rams know their window won't be open for much longer given Stafford's age, so it's conceivable general manager Les Snead goes all in, which means everything is on the table, including a trade for Andrews.
