Jets Pursue Ravens Star Tight End Mark Andrews for $56 Million

The New York Jets are facing a significant challenge as they rebuild their roster around newly signed quarterback Justin Fields, particularly with a depleted wide receiver group following the release of Davante Adams and the expected departure of Allen Lazard. The team is reportedly interested in acquiring tight end Mark Andrews from the Baltimore Ravens to bolster their offense, while also considering free agent wide receivers like Stefon Diggs and Cooper Kupp, though they seem unlikely to secure either. The Jets have made several moves in free agency to address their needs but continue to struggle with a lack of proven pass catchers, relying heavily on Garrett Wilson. New coach Aaron Glenn and general manager Darren Mougey are under pressure to reverse a 14-season playoff drought and improve on a record of nine straight losing seasons. The team needs to act quickly in the upcoming NFL Draft to fill these gaps, especially if they miss out on available free agents. Overall, the Jets' strategy hinges on effective acquisitions to support Fields in his debut season.
