Isaiah Likely

On paper, the matchup for Isaiah Likely puts him on the streaming radar, but I wouldn't plug him into a lineup this week. Yes, the Steelers have allowed the seventh-most receiving yards per game and the sixth-most fantasy points per game to tight ends, but the coverage matchup doesn't favor Likely. This week, he faces a Pittsburgh pass defense that has utilized single high at the fifth-highest rate (59.8%). Against single high, Likely has only a 9.6% target share with 1.58 yards per route run and a 9% first-read share. That's not usage that I want to depend on the week before many leagues begin the fantasy playoffs. Could it pay off? Sure, it's possible, but there's an equal chance that he burns you and you're left wishing that you didn't stream him for Week 14.

Isaiah Likely hauled in five of his team-high six targets for 95 yards in the Ravens' 32-14 Week 13 loss to the Bengals.

Fantasy Impact

Likely has struggled to make a consistent impact in the Baltimore passing attack, finishing with less than four receptions in eight of his nine games. The tight end remains difficult to trust in any format ahead of a Week 14 contest against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
