The Baltimore Ravens‘ offense seems to be evolving.
While the Ravens’ offensive line has taken time to gel, and Baltimore has yet to figure out how to put a team away in the fourth quarter, Lamar Jackson and Co. survived against the Dallas Cowboys as a new electrifying weapon continues to emerge.
Isaiah Likely is emerging from Pro Bowler Mark Andrews’ shadow and gaining Jackson’s confidence, catching 12 passes for 141 yards and a touchdown so far this season.
Baltimore Ravens TE Isaiah Likely Exploding Into 2024
Pro Football Focus points out that Likely is the highest-rated tight end across the league through the season’s first three games, posting a whopping 88.6 overall grade.
Despite stepping out of bounds while attempting to catch what would have been the game-winning touchdown in the Ravens’ Week 1 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, Likely caught the attention of All-Pro Travis Kelce for his performance in that game.
“Isaiah Likely had an amazing game,” Travis Kelce said. “[I’m] happy as hell for him. You know tight end U guy yeah and it’s just so hard. That Baltimore offense, man, once they get rolling, which I’m sure they will these next couple weeks, that team is going to be really good going into the playoffs.”
