Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely will be back "very soon," he told the panel during a taping of WJZ's Purple Playbook on Wednesday at Jimmy's Famous Seafood.
It was the first time Likely addressed his injury and recovery status.
Likely broke a bone in his foot during a training camp session on July 29. He underwent surgery and missed the preseason and the first two games of the season.
Likely told WJZ Sports Director Alex Glaze, Anchor Rick Ritter, and former Ravens' standout Torrey Smith that he broke his fifth metatarsal during a one-on-one drill in practice. The defender landed on his foot.
"He landed on my foot by accident. I grabbed my foot, felt like I couldn't put pressure on it, got an MRI, saw that I cracked my fifth metatarsal, got the surgery, and got the timestamp,"
