Isaiah Likely‘s Foot Injury Won’t Keep Him Sidelined Long
Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely is continuing his recovery from foot surgery but will miss the team’s Week 1 matchup against the Buffalo Bills on September 8th. The injury occurred in late July, requiring surgical intervention, but the Ravens opted not to place him on injured reserve.
Likely, 25, is a key component of the Ravens’ offense as the primary backup to Mark Andrews. In 2023, he achieved a career-high 477 receiving yards and six touchdowns, demonstrating his potential as a reliable target in the passing game.
Despite the setback, reports indicate that Likely is still on track for an early-season return. The decision to avoid placing him on injured reserve suggests the Ravens anticipate he will be available within the first few weeks of the 2024 NFL season.
