Likely's TE1 Week 1 and elite usage suggest late-round gem status despite tough Rams matchup.

Likely was TE1 in Week 1 with 27.8 PPR points despite playing only 50% of snaps, posting 69.7% route share, 27.6% target share, 78 receiving yards (3.39 YPRR), 31.8% first-read share, two touchdowns, and four red zone targets. Source notes if he maintains this production level, he represents the late-round tight end everyone should have drafted. Week 2 matchup with Rams is tough on paper (third-fewest yards per target, seventh-fewest fantasy points per opportunity last year), but Likely's elite usage and volume could overcome the matchup.
