The New York Giants have made significant additions to their offense ahead of the 2026 NFL season, including tight end Isaiah Likely, who signed a three-year deal worth $40 million. Likely is projected to be a key component in the passing game, especially as rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart seeks to build on his promising debut season. With wide receiver Malik Nabers recovering from injury, Likely's role could expand, potentially making him a valuable option in fantasy football.
