The Baltimore Ravens (1-2) will visit the Kansas City Chiefs (1-2) in Week 4. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding TE Isaiah Likely.
Is Isaiah Likely Playing in Week 4?
Likely (foot) is expected to suit up for Sunday’s game at Kansas City, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Isaiah Likely’s Fantasy Outlook
Isaiah Likely is nearing his return (foot), but time will only tell what his return to action will look like.
The hope is that he can continue his subtle breakout and grace the top 10 at the position when it matters most this winter, though it’s safe to say that we need to see it before assuming it.
For me, stashing Likely is more of a long-term bet against Mark Andrews than anything. There is a three-week window (Weeks 13-15: two Bengals games and the home Steelers game) as the fantasy regular and post-seasons merge that are going to project very well for this offense, likely giving them two pass catchers that rank out as starters for a critical stretch.
Zay Flowers seems like a good bet to be half of that equation, but who will be second? Likely could be, and that fact alone makes him worth holding in formats with average-to-deep benches.
