Likely’s Free-Agency Clock Ticks as Ravens Balance Loyalty with Business

After four years with the Ravens, Isaiah Likely is about to test free agency, expressing strong affection for Baltimore but acknowledging that business decisions will shape his next move. Baltimore has about $22 million in cap space, with decisions looming on Lamar Jackson’s restructure, Mark Andrews’ extension, and contracts for Zay Flowers and Tyler Linderbaum, which could affect whether Likely returns. He battled a foot injury this season but still posted 27 receptions, 307 yards, and 1 TD, and he has career totals of 1,568 yards and 15 TDs on 135 catches since 2022, signaling his potential to contribute for a team that can maximize a QB. His future could be back in Baltimore or elsewhere with a different scheme or coach.
