Isaiah Likely has seen his role increase with Mark Andrews out, and as the All-Pro prepares for his return, his backup continues a breakout campaign.

In what may have put the game away, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson hit Likely with a 15-yard pass to cap the 12-play, 93-yard scoring drive and give Baltimore a 14-point advantage.

The play was highlighted by Likely making the leaping grab over Texans star cornerback Derek Stingley Jr., and social media reacted.
