When they were blitzing like crazy, it would have been helpful to have Andrews out there for Lamar to have a reliable option to connect with while the gameplan was being adjusted.
Gronk tweeted something today about how a two-TE set with Andrews and Likely would be deadly. And Monken did have great success with that at Georgia. But I'm not sure we'll get to see that this year if Andrews is gimpy. The bigger benefit to me is that if and when Spagnuolo dials up a tailor-made gameplan, Andrews is there as an outlet when all else fails.

I don't agree woth that. In 2020 I dint think Lamar trusted anyone but Hollywood and Andrews. 2021 Hollywo9d leaves and Bateman get drafted and is immediately hurt. That left noone but Andrews. Same for 22. This season I do t think he forced the ball nearly as much to Andrews as
