STACKED’s take
Likely's target share collapsed to 2 of 4 in Week 7 after 11+ targets in prior three games.
Likely caught just two passes on four targets for 12 yards in Week 7 after seeing 11+ targets in each of the three prior games and 9.8 targets per game over the first six weeks. The source attributes the dud partly to Houston's defense stifling tight ends all season, but notes concern about the J.J. McCarthy takeover at quarterback despite McCarthy connecting with Likely for two catches, 44 yards, and a touchdown in one quarter two weeks prior. While the source expects a bounce-back after the Week 8 bye, it also flags the possibility of intermittent disappearances from Likely—he scored 2.3 points in Week 3 as well—suggesting he is not quite the dominant force that Trey McBride or Brock Bowers are.
