He played 21 snaps on offense and 27 on special teams in the victory, finishing the day with three catches for 64 yards and a touchdown on four targets while adding a two-yard carry.

Ravens' Charlie Kolar: Comes up big against Cincy
Charlie Kolar had three catches for 64 yards and a touchdown on four targets Sunday against the Bengals.Kolar came up just shy of having two touchdowns, but he was chased down from behind at the tail end of a 55-yard gain to set up an eventual score for the Baltimore Ravens. The third-year tight end did manage to cash in his first touchdown of the season and has shown a surprising knack for making big plays considering he burned the Cowboys for a 30-yard reception Week 3. Baltimore continues to roll with a deep rotation at tight end with Isaiah Likely and Mark Andrews still leading the way in terms of snaps, but Kolar is earning his keep when he's on the field. The Ravens host the Commanders in Week 6.

Ravens' Charlie Kolar: No targets Sunday
Charlie Kolar was not targeted on 18 snaps against the Bills on Sunday night.Kolar continues to have a role as a blocker as he's played at least a third of Baltimore's snaps on offense in back-to-back weeks, but his usage in the passing game is minimal. Isaiah Likely and Mark Andrews are struggling to draw targets, so it stands to reason that Kolar also isn't getting much work in that facet of the game. The Baltimore Ravens face the Bengals on the road Week 5.

Ravens' Charlie Kolar: Playing time ticks up Sunday
Charlie Kolar played a season-high 26 snaps Sunday against the Cowboys and recorded a 30-yard reception.Baltimore went heavy on the run game Sunday in Dallas with 45 of 63 plays coming on the ground. That game script makes sense to bump up Kolar's usage as he's the best blocker in the tight end room while Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely are more renowned for their pass-catching chops. Kolar made the most of his one target by turning it into a 30-yard gain but his skill set won't scale up into a significant pass-catching role without an injury elsewhere in the tight end room. Baltimore hosts Buffalo on Sunday Night Football in Week 4.

Ravens' Charlie Kolar: Shows progress in Year 2
Charlie Kolar finished the regular season with seven catches for 87 yards and a touchdown on nine targets.The second-year tight end started to see more playing time after Mark Andrews' leg injury kept him out from Week 11 onward. Kolar is more proficient as a blocker at this stage of his career than his counterpart, Isaiah Likely, who is starting to break out as a pass-catcher. Down the stretch, Kolar averaged 25 snaps per game and caught six of seven targets for 74 yards and a score on 41 routes. With Likely's emergence and Mark Andrews set to return next season (if not sooner), Kolar may be blocked from seeing significant playing time again in 2024. However, if Andrews remains out for the divisional round matchup against the Texans, Kolar could be in line for plenty of snaps.
