ExtremeRavens Posted 6 hours ago Posted 6 hours ago Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely returned to practice Thursday in what should be a good sign that he might be available Monday night against the Detroit Lions. Likely missed a majority of training camp and the first two weeks of the season after suffering a broken foot on July 29 and undergoing surgery. After a few days going through individual workouts last week, he was suited up for Friday’s practice, but listed as a limited participant. Thursday was the first time that he fully rejoined his teammates. Coach John Harbaugh said earlier this month that Likely had been “ahead of schedule” in his recovery, and “I think he’s been good. He’s probably going to start getting antsy here pretty soon, though.” The fourth-year tight end who is playing in the final year of his rookie contract still figures to be a prominent part of the Ravens’ offensive plans. Last year, the 25-year-old Likely set career highs in receptions (42), yards (477) and touchdowns (six). So far, neither tight end Mark Andrews nor Charlie Kolar has made much of a dent in the Ravens’ passing attack. Andrews has only two catches for 7 yards, while Kolar is still without a target. But Baltimore’s offense has shown in a two-game sample that it has its pick at a full buffet of pass catchers on any given day. Have a news tip?
