• Ravens' Isaiah Likely: Ruled out for Thursday

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  Likely (hamstring) won't play Thursday against the Bengals. Likely was listed as a non-participant on practice reports over the last three days, so he'll miss his first game of the season and target a potential return to action Nov. 17 against the Steelers in Week 11. In Likely's upcoming absence, Mark Andrews is slated to lead the Ravens' tight-end corps, with Charlie Kolar also mixing in.

• Ravens' Isaiah Likely: Sidelined for practice Tuesday

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  Likely (hamstring) wasn't on the field for Tuesday's practice, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports. Likely had been previously listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report, and with Tuesday being the Ravens' only full practice before Thursday's matchup with the Bengals, the tight end looks to be at real risk of missing his first game of the season. The injury may explain why Likely was held to a season-low 31 percent snap share in the Ravens' Week 9 win over the Broncos. If Likely were to sit out Thursday's contest, Mark Andrews and Charlie Kolar could see increased reps, and fullback Patrick Ricard -- who caught a three-yard touchdown in Week 9 -- could also be on the field more frequently.

• Ravens' Isaiah Likely: Listed as DNP on Monday

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Likely (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports. The Ravens merely held a walkthrough Monday. It's a new injury for Likely, who had yet to miss a single practice rep all season through nine weeks. The Ravens have a quick turnaround this week ahead of a Thursday night date with the Bengals. If Likely is unable to go, Mark Andrews and Charlie Kolar would handle tight end duties, and Baltimore could opt to use more three-wide sets with Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman and newcomer Diontae Johnson.

• Ravens' Isaiah Likely: TEs to Sit

  11D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  Likely had a solid outing in Week 8 at Cleveland with four catches for 47 yards on four targets, which was the most yards he's had since Week 1. But he's now gone three games in a row without a touchdown, and the Ravens just added Diontae Johnson via trade, which should impact the targets for Likely moving forward. Denver has allowed just two touchdowns to a tight end this season, and if Likely doesn't score then his Fantasy production will likely be minimal.

• Ravens' Isaiah Likely: Sees four targets Sunday

  28D ago • By RotoWire

  Likely had two catches for 27 yards on four targets Sunday against the Commanders. Likely came back to earth Sunday after nabbing two touchdowns against the Bengals in Week 5. He actually saw his highest target volume since Week 1, but it only amounted to middling production. It's encouraging Likely played significantly more snaps (46) than Mark Andrews (34) but Andrews had his best pass-catching performance of the season and could start commanding a bigger share of the targets going forward. Still, Likely has promising peripheral metrics for targets per route (25.8 percent) and yards per route run (2.13), and with tight end production down league-wide, he actually ranks as TE5 in total fantasy points this season.
