Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely could be ready for Week 1 if he recovers as expected from a small fracture in his foot, according to reports.
Likely was injured in a non-contact play during position drills on Tuesday while going one-on-one against safety Sanoussi Kane. He was taken off the field on a cart.
The 25-year-old is expected to miss “a few weeks,” coach John Harbaugh said.
Tests on Likely’s foot and ankle were done Tuesday and Harbaugh said the team would wait until Wednesday for full results to know “exactly what needs to be done. But it’ll be a few weeks. It’s good that it’s this early in camp.”
Likely is in the final year of his rookie contract and No. 1 tight end Mark Andrews, who also signed a contract in 2021, would also be a free agent at the end of the 2025 season if his deal isn’t extended by the Ravens.
Likely played in 16 regular-season games (nine starts) last season and caught 42 of 58 targets for 477 yards and six touchdowns. He also had seven receptions on nine targets for 126 yards and one TD in two playoff games.
He has 108 career receptions for 1,261 yards and 14 TDs in 49 regular-season games (19 starts), and another 11 catches for 176 yards and two scores in five postseason games (one start).
The Ravens selected Likely in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft out of Coastal Carolina.
