From the article

Free agency acquisition tight end Isaiah Likely is a big reason why New York has been able to maintain any semblance of a coherent passing game despite fill-in quarterback Jameis Winston ranking second-to-last in the league in completion percentage at 57.6%. Likely's four receiving touchdowns are tied for the fourth-most in the NFL and rank as tied for the most among tight ends leaguewide. His 19 receiving first downs are the most among all tight ends through five weeks this season.
