Giants' Isaiah Likely: Another big day in Week 6 loss
Likely caught six of 11 targets for 99 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Saints.
The tight end came through with another big performance and connected with J.J. McCarthy on a 24-yard TD in the fourth quarter after the young QB had replaced Jameis Winston under center. It's reassuring that Likely remained involved even after the switch at quarterback, and he's seen double-digit targets in three straight games, delivering a 24-259-3 line on 36 targets as the team's No. 2 pass catcher behind Malik Nabers. Likely will look to keep rolling in Week 7 against the Texans, regardless of who is throwing him the ball.

Giants' Isaiah Likely: Two TDs among career-high 11 catches
Likely caught 11 of 13 targets for 94 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 27-27 tie against the Commanders.
Likely's career-high 11 receptions included a three-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter and a 17-yard touchdown reception in the fourth, which helped the Giants erase a 19-6 second-half deficit. The shifty TE has drawn double-digit targets in three of his first five games with the Giants, producing 33 catches for 284 yards and four TDs. Likely needs 193 receiving yards to match his 2024 regular-season career high from the third of his four seasons in Baltimore. He and Malik Nabers should continue to work as the Giants' top two pass catchers in Week 6 against the Saints.

Giants' Isaiah Likely: Good to go for Week 5
Likely (knee/groin) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game at Washington, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
With limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, Likely was upgraded to full Friday and is all systems go for Sunday's divisional matchup. He's coming off a season-high 12 targets in last Sunday's win over the Cardinals and has 22 catches for 190 yards and two touchdowns on 35 targets through four games as a TE1 in fantasy.

Giants' Isaiah Likely: Another limited practice
Likely (knee/groin) practiced on a limited basis Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Likely maintained his activity level from Wednesday's session as he deals with knee and groin injuries. There's been nothing to suggest that he's in danger of missing Sunday's game at Washington, but he still may be tagged with a designation on the Giants' final practice report of the week Friday.

Giants' Isaiah Likely: Limited Wednesday
Likely (knee/groin) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Likely is tending to a pair of health concerns as Week 5 prep begins, but he at least has two more chances to get back to full this week and avoid a designation ahead of Sunday's game at Washington. Through four contests this season, he's been a key cog in the Giants' passing game, totaling 22 catches (on 35 targets) for 190 yards and two touchdowns.

Giants' Isaiah Likely: Team-high seven grabs in win over Cards
Likely caught seven of 12 targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 36-24 win over Arizona.
The targets and catches led the Giants on the day, but Likely's yardage total was well behind Malik Nabers' 112. Likely has remained an important part of the passing game with Jameis Winston under center instead of Jaxson Dart (knee), and in Winston's three appearances (two starts) the tight end has delivered a 14-112-0 line on 27 targets, seeing double-digit looks twice. Likely will look to find the end zone for the first time since the season opener in a Week 5 road clash with the Commanders.

Giants' Isaiah Likely: Only two catches vs. Tennessee
Likely caught two of five targets for 13 yards during the Giants' 12-7 win over the Titans on Sunday.
After logging 13 catches through the first two games of the regular season, Likely was held to only two receptions in Week 3, the first game with Jameis Winston as the starter instead of Jaxson Dart (knee, IR). Likely's five targets were second-most on the Giants behind Malik Nabers (six), but the scoring floors of all Giants pass catchers figure to be lower with Winston under center. That said, New York could turn the keys over to the recently acquired J.J. McCarthy if Winston continues to underwhelm. The Giants will stay home for Week 4 against the Cardinals, whose defense gave up a 6-82-2 receiving line to tight end George Kittle in a 36-30 loss to the 49ers in Week 3.
