In the NFL season opener, Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely outshone teammate Mark Andrews with a standout performance. Likely recorded 5 receptions for 87 yards and a touchdown, significantly surpassing Andrews, who had only 1 reception for 11 yards. Likely's performance included 6 targets, highlighting his increasing role in the Ravens' offense. Despite nearly equal snap counts in the first half, with Andrews at 27 and Likely at 26, Andrews struggled to make an impact, receiving no targets initially. Likely also had 4 receptions for 38 yards earlier in the game. Likely's emergence as a key player raises questions about the future dynamics of the Ravens' tight end position.
