Likely Believes Versatility Is His Strength
At 6-foot-4, Likely is another tight end who likes to move all over the field, and he looks forward to joining Offensive Coordinator Greg Roman’s tight-end friendly system.
“I come to a unique offense like the Ravens where you have a great quarterback in Lamar Jackson, a bunch of pieces and a Pro Bowler in Mark Andrews,” Likely said. “The Ravens really play with more than one with tight end, so I know that playing time’s in balance for the first year.”
He Looks Forward to Playing With Lamar Jackson
Likely is a fan of Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson and looks forward to building chemistry with him.
“Lamar Jackson does a lot of great things with the ball in his hands, whether it’s RPOs, drop-backs or the pocket’s collapsing and he’s just looking down the field,” Likely said. “Lamar Jackson’s a playmaker. He’s always trying to find eyes down the field, look for the tight end longshot.”
