ANALYSIS: Ravens All-Pro Starting TE Mark Andrews went down with a brutal lower-body injury on Thursday Night Football that unfortunately appears to have ended his season. The 2023 league year has seen an unprecedented amount of injuries to many of its stars, and Andrews was no exception.

The Ravens' offense has started to gel under new offensive coordinator Todd Monken, who is installing more of a downfield passing attack compared to the sophisticated running schemes under Greg Roman in years past.
While there is more wide receiver talent on the Ravens this year compared to last, Likely shined as a rookie last year and had two solid performances in games that Andrews missed, finishing as the TE9 and TE3.
Everyone seems to be down on Likely since he didn't do much in Week 1 of this year while Andrews was out, but it was a game in which the Ravens won handily and Jackson only had 22 pass attempts. If you lost Andrews for the season or need some help at Tight End, might as well spend up on Likely and see what happens.
Disclaimer: Since Isaiah Likely already played on Thursday Night, he is only available for pickup in some leagues that allow it. Many leagues lock players from being added if they already played. Nonetheless, if the Ravens don't add another tight end, there is ample opportunity for Likely.
