New York Giants tight end Isaiah Likely is set to play in Week 5 after fully participating in practice on October 9. Despite concerns about a groin and knee injury, he is not listed on the injury report. Likely has been a reliable target for quarterback Jameis Winston, having caught at least five passes in three of four games this season and receiving 12 targets in his last outing. His anticipated presence should contribute positively to the team's offensive strategy in the upcoming game.
