Andrews was evaluated by team medical staff and did not “sustain any apparent injuries,” the team added.

“I appreciate everyone’s thoughts and well wishes,” Andrews said in a statement. “This is a great reminder about the importance of wearing seatbelts and remaining alert while driving a car.”

Andrews was already scheduled for a rest day on Wednesday and is expected back at practice in the coming days, according to the team.

After practice Wednesday, Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Andrews is “feeling good” and reiterated the importance of wearing seatbelts.

“Mark (Andrews) wore seatbelts,” Harbaugh told reporters. “That was an accident that happened and it was pretty significant, I believe. He came out of it with nothing. Nothing at all, not a scrape.”

A spokesperson from the Baltimore County Police Department told CNN on Thursday that they attended motor vehichle crash at 9:45 a.m. on Wednesday morning. They added that the crash involved two vehicles which sustained “heavy damage” with no injuries reported and that the case remains open.
