Isaiah Likely Week 2 Outlook - Raiders at Ravens

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Sep 12th 2024, 1:05pm EDT

Likely went bonkers in Week 1 with a 29.3% target share, a 38.2% air-yard share, and 3.58 yards per route run. His 26.1 fantasy points will likely be a season-high, but we can't dismiss Likely's usage. He will remain involved heavily in this offense, but these market share numbers aren't sustainable unless Andrews isn't as healthy as we've been led to believe. Likely only had a 60.8% route participation. The Raiders utilized single high on 53.8% of their defensive snaps in Week 1. Last year against single-high, among 40 qualifying tight ends, Likely ranked eighth in separation score and 11th in route win rate. Last season, the Raiders allowed the ninth-most receptions to tight ends while ranking 17th in fantasy points allowed to slot tight ends.
