Who Should I Start? Evan Engram or Isaiah Likely

Saturday, December 13, 2:44 PM

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram will be a tough start in Week 15 as they host the Green Bay Packers. Engram hasn't been able to provide much help to fantasy managers this season as he's had two games over 10 fantasy points in half-ppr formats in 2025, both ending in back-half TE1 finishes. Broncos tight end Adam Trautman has actually gotten the dominant snap shares for most of the season, although Engram has seen 61 targets to Trautman's 18. Shockingly, they both have the same number of touchdowns at one apiece. With Engram being a weekly dart throw at the tight end position, there are several safer options to choose from as RotoBaller ranks him at TE25 overall for Week 15.

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely has seen an increased amount of work over the last two weeks. He finished as the TE9 in each of the last two weeks in half-PPR formats, and saw six targets in both games while catching nine of the possible 12. The last time he took on the Cincinnati Bengals' defense in Week 13, Likely finished with five catches for 95 yards and a fumble. The Bengals are far and away the weakest defense against opposing tight ends (ranked 32nd on the season and last four weeks), so Likely and Mark Andrews should both see plenty of opportunities. The biggest issue is the game script and if the Ravens' coaching staff actually wants to commit to the run, roll with Andrews more often, or keep finding Likely. With that being said, Likely projects as the TE12 on RotoBaller's rankings this week.
