Ravens Week 11 Snap Counts: Isaiah Likely receives bulk of Andrews’ snaps

In Week 11, Baltimore dispatched Cincinnati 34-20 to earn their eight victory of the season. However, it was a costly win because All-Pro tight end Mark Andrews suffered a probable season-ending leg injury in the first quarter.

The Ravens dominated their division rivals on third down by converting 50-percent of their attempts while holding the Bengals below 19-percent. A 6.8 to 4.6 advantage in yards per play helping Baltimore outgain Cincinnati by more than 130 yards from scrimmage. And the Ravens’ pass defense smothered the Bengals’ quarterbacks, notching five sacks and seven passes defensed.

Quarterbacks

Lamar Jackson: 66 Offensive Snaps (100%)

Tyler Huntley: Did Not Play

Josh Johnson: Inactive

Lamar threw for 264 yards and two touchdowns for a 121.3 passer rating, and ran for 54 yards against Lou Anarumo’s defense.

Running Backs

Gus Edwards: 25 (38%)

Keaton Mitchell: 24 (36%) — 5 Special Teams Snaps (16%)

Tight Ends

Isaiah Likely: 49 (74%) — 5 (16%)

Patrick Ricard: 25 (38%) — 4 (12%)

Charlie Kolar: 11 (17%) — 20 (62%)

Mark Andrews: 7 (11%)

Despite seeing the field for nearly three quarters of the offensive plays, Likely failed to record a catch on two targets. Kolar recorded a 13-yard reception and should be in-line for more work with Andrews sidelined indefinitely.

Wide Recievers

Zay Flowers: 65 (98%) — 1 (3%)

Rashod Bateman: 52 (79%) — 1 (3%)

Nelson Agholor: 27 (41%)

Odell Beckham Jr.: 22 (33%)

Tylan Wallace: 3 (5%) — 20 (62%)

Devin Duvernay: 0 — 10 (31%)

Flowers gained 43 yards on three catches including a 33-yard reception, Agholor caught a deflected pass and took it 37-yards to pay dirt and Bateman caught a 10-yard touchdown. But Beckham was the focal point of the passing offense, he led the Ravens with seven targets, four grabs and a season-high 116 yards.

Offensive Line

John Simpson: 66 (100%) — 6 (19%)

Kevin Zeitler: 66 (100%) — 6 (19%)

Patrick Mekari: 66 (100%) — 6 (19%)

Morgan Moses: 66 (100%)

Tyler Linderbaum: 66 (100%)

Ben Cleveland: 3 (5%) — 6 (19%)

Daniel Faalele: 0 — 6 (19%)

Sam Mustipher: DNP

Ronnie Stanley: Inactive

Malaesala Aumavae-Laulu: Inactive

Mekari started at left tackle for the chronically injured Stanley and Moses returned from injury to man the right tackle spot. Overall, the blocking unit surrendered three sacks, five tackles for loss and five quarterback hits while paving the way for 5.1 yards per rushing attempt.

Defensive Line

Justin Madubuike: 39 Defensive Snaps (64%) — 6 (19%)

Michael Pierce: 32 (52%)

Travis Jones: 29 (48%) — 12 (38%)

Brent Urban: 26 (43%) — 6 (19%)

Broderick Washington: Inactive

With Washington a surprise inactive, Jones and Urban saw an uptick in usage. Madubuike posted three solo tackles and extended his streak of consecutive games with a sack to eight.

Inside Linebackers

Patrick Queen: 61 (100%)

Roquan Smith: 61 (100%)

Del’Shawn Phillips: 0 — 26 (81%)

Josh Ross: 0 — 24 (75%)

Trenton Simpson: Inactive

Ross was elevated from the practice squad to bolster the special teams units. Queen struggled for the second straight week and could cede passing down snaps to a dime safety down the stretch.

Outside Linebackers

Odafe Oweh: 35 (57%)

Jadeveon Clowney: 29 (48%)

Kyle Van Noy: 24 (39%)

Tavius Robinson: 23 (38%) — 16 (50%)

Malik Harrison: 11 (18%) — 26 (81%)

Oweh, Clowney, Van Noy and Robinson each notched sacks in Week 11. Defensive Coordinator Mike Macdonald’s five-man rotation should help keep the edge rushers fresh in December and January.

Cornerbacks

Brandon Stephens: 61 (100%) — 7 (22%)

Ronald Darby: 31 (51%)

Rock Ya-Sin: 19 (31%) — 9 (28%)

Arthur Maulet: 17 (28%) — 16 (50%)

Jalyn Armour-Davis: 11 (18%) — 11 (34%)

Marlon Humphrey: Inactive

Stephens effectively neutralized Ja’Marr Chase for most of the contest. Darby was credited with three pass breakups and presumably secured a prominent role ahead of Ya-Sin, who has struggled in coverage lately. Maulet continued to rotate with safety Geno Stone as the nickel defender and Armour-Davis saw his first action on defense in several weeks.

Safeties

Kyle Hamilton: 61 (100%) — 6 (19%)

Marcus Williams: 61 (100%)

Geno Stone: 40 (66%) — 19 (59%)

Daryl Worley: 0 — 25 (78%)

Williams rebounded from an inconsistent return from injury in Week 10 with five solo tackles and two pass breakups against the Bengals. Hamilton, arguably Baltimore’s best defender this season, also notched two pass breakups.

Specialists

Justin Tucker: 13 (41%)

Jordan Stout: 10 (31%)

Tyler Ott: 10 (31%)

Stout averaged 34.5 net punting yards and Tucker converted both of his field goal attempts.
