Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews was able to be one of a few people to help a woman suffering a medical emergency on a plane.

In a post on X, a person named Andrew Springs detailed on his flight from Baltimore to Phoenix, a woman had a medical emergency on a flight. A doctor and nurse on board were attending to her, but weren't able to "find a strong pulse, her blood pressure was extremely low, and required oxygen to breathe."

Springs said then a man asked, "Could it be her blood sugar? I have a diabetic testing kit," revealing to be Andrews. The tight end instructed the doctor and nurse on how to use the test kit, and eventually the woman's heart rate stabilized. Paramedics met the flight once it landed and Andrews left the plane quietly, according to Springs.

"As he has done his whole career, he stepped up in a huge moment when people needed him most. Watching complete strangers spring into action to help save someone’s life is truly amazing," Springs said.

The Ravens confirmed the story to the USA TODAY Network on Thursday and put out a statement on social media from Andrews. It was not revealed what emergency the woman had or her condition once the plane landed.

"In addition to the fast-acting flight attendants, the real heroes are the nurse and doctor who also happened to be on the plane," the statement read. "Thankfully they were able to provide the woman the quick assistance she needed."

Andrews has been open about his Type 1 diabetes, which he said he was diagnosed with at 9 years old. In 2019, he told USA TODAY Sports he pricks his fingers before kickoff and approximately 30 times over the course of a game to monitor his blood sugar levels to make sure he's not too high or too low.

"I’m always checking this thing before the games and making sure that my numbers are flat and steady and ready to go," Andrews said.

Drafted in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft, Andrews just finished up his sixth season with the Ravens. He played in only 10 regular-season games, missing the final six games due to an ankle injury suffered in the Week 11 win against the Cincinnati Bengals. He returned in the AFC championship game against the Kansas City Chiefs, hauling in two catches for 15 yards in the 17-10 loss.
