While unsubstantiated rumors swirl about a possible contract extension for Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely, bad news came out of training camp as he suffered a left foot/ankle injury. According to The Baltimore Banner‘s Giana Han, Likely suffered the injury and was seen punching the ground in frustration. He then hobbled into the building, putting little weight on his foot.

Likely went down toward the end of practice during a one-on-one drill against safety Sanoussi Kane. He was carted off the field and then limped into the locker room.

After practice, coach John Harbaugh said Likely is expected to miss a few weeks and that he’ll be getting an MRI tomorrow to know the extent of the injury and timeline.

“We’ll know more [Wednesday],” Harbaugh said. “We’ll get an MRI and see exactly what needs to be done. It’s good it’s this early in camp.”

Barring a significant injury, it sounds as though Likely will miss training camp and likely preseason, but could be available for the beginning of the season when the Ravens face the Buffalo Bills in Week 1 on September 7.

The 25-year-old is entering the final year of his rookie contract and is scheduled to make $3.4 million this season. A fourth-round pick in 2022, Likely set career highs last season with 42 catches for 477 yards receiving and six touchdowns.

The Ravens have one of the deepest tight end groups in the NFL with Likely, Mark Andrews and Charlie Kolar. All three tight ends are scheduled to be free agents after this season.

Likely has been durable in his three-year career, missing two games due to injury. He was sidelined for one game in 2022 with an ankle injury and missed one game last season with a hamstring injury.

If Likely misses significant time, Kolar might have an increased role. Known more for his blocking, Kolar caught nine passes last season for 131 yards and one touchdown.
