The Story in 60 Seconds

Eamon Cassels of Ebony Bird argues that the Baltimore Ravens made a major mistake by extending Mark Andrews instead of keeping Isaiah Likely. Baltimore signed Andrews to a three-year, $39.2 million extension last season, leading to Likely departing for the New York Giants. Cassels contends that the move is aging poorly given Andrews' recent struggles and Likely's standout production.

Through Week 5, Likely has recorded 284 receiving yards and four touchdowns, compared to Andrews' 177 yards and one score. Andrews struggled with three drops and a fumble during Baltimore's 33-30 victory over the Atlanta Falcons, while Likely posted a two-touchdown game for New York.
