From the article

A broken foot in August sabotaged his 2025 campaign, but when healthy: Likely has the sort of YAC ability to make the most out of any low-aDOT/screen targets thrown his way, and his penchant for getting open during the scramble drill could mesh pretty damn great with Jaxson Dart. Throw in the high-priced contract (one of only six tight ends making at least $40M) and utter lack of target competition at TE and WR alike, and it's easy to see why Likely is such a popular late-round pick this season.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Likely's YAC ability and contract investment support late-round upside.

Likely's 2025 campaign was sabotaged by a broken foot in August, but when healthy he possesses elite YAC ability to maximize low-aDOT/screen targets and scramble-drill opportunities with new QB Jaxson Dart; his high-priced contract ($40M+) and lack of target competition at TE and WR make him a popular late-round pick.
