2024 Fantasy Outlook
Likely has thrived whenever Mark Andrews has missed time, but the 2022 fourth-round pick out of Coastal Carolina otherwise has found himself delegated to a depth role. In the 10 games Andrews has missed over the past two seasons, Likely compiled 530 receiving yards and seven touchdowns. Over 23 other appearances during that span, Likely had just 254 yards and one touchdown. It’s possible his strong play down the stretch last year will earn him a more prominent role in his third campaign even when Andrews is healthy, but the Ravens still don't figure to use multi-TE formations often enough to provide Likely with more than three or four targets per game. While Baltimore's WR depth looks shaky, FB Patrick Ricard is still on the roster after playing at least 31 percent of snaps in five straight seasons, including 39.4 percent last year in Todd Monken's first season as offensive coordinator. Monken presumably will get Likely more involved this year, but fantasy value in most formats still figures to depend on Andrews missing time. Read Past Outlooks
Finds end zone in win
Likely caught all three of his targets for 29 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 34-17 win over the Steelers.
ANALYSIS
Both Ravens tight ends got into the end zone Saturday, with Likely opening the scoring in the first quarter with a nine-yard reception. The third-year player set new career highs in receptions (38) and receiving yards (430) with the performance, and his five TDs on the season ties the career high he set in 2023. Likely hasn't reached 40 yards in four straight games however, making him a TD-dependent fantasy option in a Week 17 matchup against the Texans.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Backup tight ends generally don’t generate much buzz, but Likely quickly became an exception as a rookie last summer with 12 catches for 144 yards the first two weeks of the preseason. Once games counted, the fourth-round pick was mostly stuck behind star TE Mark Andrews but then thrived when he got extra playing time. Andrews played only 10 snaps Week 8 and sat out entirely Weeks 9 and 18; in those three games, Likely caught 15 of 25 targets for 204 yards and two touchdowns. In his other 13 games, he had 21-169-1 on 35 targets. The 6-foot-4, 240-pound tight end now faces tougher snap/target competition from an upgraded group of wideouts, but new OC Todd Monken may nonetheless make two-TE sets a big part of his offense, especially if rookie WR Zay Flowers is slow to develop or Odell Beckham and Rashod Bateman struggle with injuries again.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Get-right opportunity vs. Steelers
Likely, who was held to two catches for 17 yards in the Ravens' Week 15 win over the Giants, should be in line for heavier involvement in the passing attack against the Steelers on Saturday due to Nelson Agholor being ruled out with a concussion.
ANALYSIS
Likely looked to have taken over as the Ravens' top tight end from Mark Andrews after the former caught nine passes on 12 targets for 111 yards and one touchdown in the Ravens' regular-season opener against the Chiefs. Likely hasn't seen that level of production since, but he should see more targets from Lamar Jackson on Saturday due to Agholor's absence, and there could be even more opportunities in the passing game if Rashod Bateman is unable to play due to a foot injury. Likely's second most productive game of the season came against the Steelers in Week 11, when he caught four passes on five targets for 75 yards.
