Isaiah Likely avoids IR TE still recovering from late July foot injury By: Doug Orth | Aug 26 2025, 11:00 pm
Ravens did not place TE Isaiah Likely on injured reserve, which means he’s eligible to play in Baltimore’s first four games. Likely suffered a small fracture in his foot in late July and has yet to return to practice. (ESPN.com - Jamison Hensley)
FFToday's Take:This news is unlikely to matter much in Week 1, but Likely is the rare "backup" tight end who is a surefire TE1 if/when Mark Andrews misses time. Unfortunately for Likely, he is almost certain to need some ramp-up time before he can contribute in fantasy. He's still worth a stash late in drafts, especially for managers who invested a pick in Andrews.
