Likely brought in four of five targets for 73 yards and a touchdown in the Ravens' 27-25 divisional-round loss to the Bills on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Likely led the Ravens in receiving yards on the evening while delivering a spectacular diving touchdown reception with 1:33 remaining to bring Baltimore within a two-point conversion of tying the Bills and likely forcing overtime. Prior to that, the third-year pro posted 39- and five-yard grabs on the Ravens' opening possession to help set up the first touchdown of the game. Likely recorded 126 receiving yards over Baltimore's two-week postseason run following a regular season during which he generated a career-best 42-477-6 line on 58 targets across 16 games. Likely is due to play out the final year of his rookie contract in 2025, but the combination of his ascension this past season and Mark Andrews' age should result in the former receiving an offer for an extension this offseason.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
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.
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.
Tight ends are a major factor in Baltimore's offense, so Likely landing in the Charm City instantly puts him on the fantasy radar. Mark Andrews is the top option in the passing game and that isn't changing anytime soon. But there is still room for a second tight end to get in on the rotation for targets and Baltimore's offseason decisions with the receiving corps only strengthen that notion. Likely has an interesting profile in his own right, too. He averaged 11.69 YPT over 78 targets and scored 12 touchdowns in his final season at Coastal Carolina. His combine metrics kept him from being drafted higher and his frame (6-5, 245) could be an issue as it relates to blocking NFL edge rushers and linebackers. There's added competition with fellow rookie Charlie Kolar to consider, too. It may take until midseason for one of either Likely or Kolar to emerge as a secondary tight end target behind Andrews, but there's reason to believe one of these rookies can have a role in Baltimore's passing game this year.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
May see bump in targets Sunday
TEBaltimore Ravens
January 17, 2025
Likely could be in store for an increase in targets during Sunday evening's divisional-round matchup against the Bills due to Zay Flowers being listed as doubtful for the game with a knee injury, per Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com.
ANALYSIS
Likely led the Ravens' pass catchers during Saturday's wild-card win over the Steelers with both his three receptions and 53 receiving yards. He also tied Justice Hill for the team lead in targets with four, and although all of those numbers are relatively modest, they're more noteworthy when put into the context of a game in which Lamar Jackson put up only 21 pass attempts. The Bills were relatively susceptible to tight ends during the regular season, surrendering a 92-817-5 line to the position.
