No Andrews competition; top-5 TE upside when healthy and featured.
Tight end breakout candidate finally positioned for elite production. Likely moved from Baltimore to Giants with head coach John Harbaugh, who acquired him specifically because he believes Likely has one of the highest ceilings at TE. Harbaugh was talking about Likely as all-pro type talent before his 2025 season-ending knee injury. No Mark Andrews blocking opportunities anymore—Likely is expected to be #1 receiver for Giants until Malik Nabors proves healthy (currently rehabbing knee injury). Every time Andrews missed time in past, Likely put up top-5 fantasy TE numbers: 11 PPG equivalent to TE5 in PPG last year. Volume and opportunities are the key for TE breakouts, and Likely will see both. Tara Roberts calls him the late-round TE you need because he's going to break out in 2026.
