Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely was caught on camera having a testy exchange with a Kansas City Chiefs fan after Thursday night’s thrilling finish at Arrowhead Stadium.
On the final play of the game, Isaiah Likely appeared to have kept the Ravens’ hopes alive with a 10-yard touchdown reception from Lamar Jackson with zeroes on the clock. Ravens head coach John Harbaugh immediately signaled for the team to attempt a two-point conversion instead of playing for overtime.
But upon further review, Likely’s right foot was just-barely out of bounds. The pass was ruled incomplete, and the game ended with a heart-pounding 27-20 victory for the defending champions.
After the game, Isaiah Likely was seen screaming “F**k you b**tch” to a heckling Chiefs fan as he walked to the visitor’s locker room. Landon Reinhardt of KSNT 27 News shared the video (WARNING: Contains Language That Is NSFW):
Likely finished with nine receptions for 111 yards (both game-highs) and one receiving touchdown. But the Ravens were undone by costly penalties (seven for 64 yards) and red zone woes, scoring just one touchdown on four trips there.

Any close loss is frustrating, but this one may sting harder for Likely and the Ravens. They’re now 1-5 against Patrick Mahomes, and the Chiefs have clinched the head-to-head tiebreaker against Baltimore, in case they finish with identical records.
Four of Baltimore’s five losses against Mahomes have been decided by a score, including last season’s heartbreaking 17-10 loss to Kansas City in the AFC Championship Game at home.
Isaiah Likely & Ravens Will Learn From This Loss
The Ravens can take solace in the fact they moved the ball aplenty on arguably football’s best defense, and that they held Kanas City’s high-powered offense to 13 points through one half.
Likely stepped up during surprisingly quiet games from Derrick Henry, Mark Andrews and Zay Flowers. There’s nowhere for Baltimore’s offense to go but up, because those three stars will not be non-factors very often, let alone all in the same game.
