While unsubstantiated rumors swirl about a possible contract extension for Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely, bad news came out of training camp as he suffered a left foot/ankle injury. According to The Baltimore Banner’s Giana Han, Likely suffered the injury and was seen punching the ground in frustration. He then hobbled into the building putting little weight on his foot.
After practice, Head Coach John Harbaugh said Likely is expected to miss a few weeks and that he’ll be getting an MRI
tomorrow to know the extent of the injury and timeline.
“We’ll know more tomorrow,” Harbaugh said. “It’s going to be a few weeks, though. He rolled his ankle — foot area. So, he’ll get an MRI tomorrow to see exactly what needs to be done. But it’ll be a few weeks. It’s good that it’s just early in camp.”
Barring a significant injury, it sounds as though Likely will miss training camp and likely preseason, but could be available for the beginning of the season when the Ravens face the Buffalo Bills in Week 1 on Sept. 7.
