Isaiah Likely's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely corralled all three of his targets for 29 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 34-17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. The third-year pro scored his fifth TD of the season -- matching his career-best mark from a year ago. His score was a nine-yard walk-in off a nifty misdirection in the first quarter. With quarterback Lamar Jackson brandishing low passing volume again, Likely was stuck with another low target-total outing. However, his yardage mark, target, and reception total were third most on the offense behind wide receiver Zay Flowers and fellow tight end Mark Andrews. While the 24-year-old is tough to trust for fantasy, he's flashed his upside when called upon in a featured role. Likely and the Ravens will square off against the Houston Texans next Wednesday in a road tilt.

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely should be considered a very high-risk bet in the fantasy playoffs with the Ravens playing host to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 16. The third-year tight end's ups and downs have been wild this season, ranging from a TE1 showing in Week 1 to a zero-target performance despite playing more than half of Baltimore's offensive snaps in Week 12. With receivers Rashod Bateman (foot) and Nelson Agholor (concussion) questionable and Pittsburgh ranking a middling 17th against tight ends, Likely certainly could find himself drawing more targets. But betting on which weeks Likely will pop is like a scratch-off lottery ticket. Tread carefully.

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely should be viewed as a risky TE2 heading into a Week 15 matchup against the New York Giants. The young tight end has shown elite potential at times this season. Last weekend, he brought in five of his eight targets for 38 yards and a score. In addition, he has scored double-digit PPR points in four of the 12 games this season. In three of those games, he scored at least 15.0 PPR points. However, Likely has struggled to produce consistently. During Weeks 6 through 12, he averaged just 4.8 PPR points per game and tallied just 27.7 yards per game. While he has produced a solid fantasy output when given the targets, he is hard to trust in standard formats and could be in store for another "bust" showing facing a Giants defense that has allowed the third-fewest PPR points to opposing tight ends this season.

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely returned to the scoring column for the first time since Week 5 against the Cincinnati Bengals in Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. The 24-year-old finished the game with five receptions for 38 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. This was a tight-end-heavy game as Likely and Mark Andrews saw 15 targets combined and they both scored. If Rashod Bateman (knee) has to miss any more games, it could push up some value for Likely and Andrews. They head to their bye week in Week 14 though, so they'll have some time to rest and get healthy.

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely led the team in receiving yards during their 18-16 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. In his first game back, Likely registered four receptions for 75 yards on five targets. He saw more targets and had a more successful day than his counterpart Mark Andrews. With Likely healthy again, the Ravens' tight end room remains the most difficult one to predict each week. They'll go up against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 12.
