Should You Start or Sit Isaiah Likely in Week 7?
Likely has seen three end-zone targets over the past two weeks after not seeing one for three straight games. That naturally brings some upside into focus at a position where a touchdown — of any length — makes you a startable option.
There’s no question that Likely is the tight end in Baltimore with the most juice, which is why his aDOT is 26.2% lower than that of Mark Andrews. Todd Monken wants to get Likely the ball in space if at all possible.
I understand that it was Andrews last week who got the touchdown and, thus, paid off while Likely struggled (2-27-0). But with the Bucs allowing a league-high 21 short completions per game, I have Likely ranked over Andrews this week and just inside of my top 15.
