Ravens HC John Harbaugh says 'outside chance' Mark Andrews (ankle) can return this season

Baltimore Ravens star tight end Mark Andrews’ season might not be officially over after all.

Coach John Harbaugh said tests on Andrews’ ankle offered some optimism that the tight end has an “outside chance” to return at some point down the line.

“Nothing is completely definitive yet, but my understanding is in talking with our trainer and the doctors is that it wasn’t as bad as initially feared right after the game,” Harbaugh said Monday.

Andrews was injured on a tackle early in the first quarter of the Ravens’ win over the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night when linebacker Logan Wilson landed on his leg. Initially, the Ravens believed the injury would wipe out the rest of Andrew’s campaign.

It would likely take a Ravens deep postseason run for Andrews to make it back on the field this season, but with Baltimore sitting at 8-3, atop the AFC North, there is at least a chance.
