The Baltimore Ravens will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 11. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding TE Isaiah Likely.
Is Isaiah Likely Playing in Week 11?
Likely (hamstring) will only miss a single game. While he didn’t play in Week 10, Likely returned to full practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday ahead of Week 11.
Likely fully practiced again on Friday and was formally removed from Baltimore’s injury report. He’s good to go against the Steelers. Whether Likely has any fantasy value remaining is an open question, however.
Fellow Ravens TE Mark Andrews has looked like his old self in recent games, finishing as a top-six fantasy tight end in Weeks 6, 7, and 10. He’s dominating targets, while Baltimore’s acquisition of Diontae Johnson means the Ravens are playing more three-WR sets with Likely on the sidelines.

Should You Start or Sit Isaiah Likely?
The hamstring injury kept Isaiah Likely out of Thursday’s instant classic with the Bengals; hopefully, that pushed you to cut ties. I love the athletic profile and still think the 24-year-old has a promising future in this league. But in terms of chasing a 2024 fantasy title, this isn’t a profile to bet on.
Likely hasn’t reached 50 receiving yards since that standout Week 1 loss in Kansas City and has scored in just one of eight contests over that stretch. You can move on – if Mark Andrews were to get hurt, I’d spend every FAAB dollar left in my wallet. Nonetheless, burning a roster spot and hoping for a tight end injury to a fully healthy player just isn’t how I build out my team.
