What Became of the Likely Lad? Isaiah Likely Lands With the Giants

Neil Dutton
March 13, 2026

As soon as the Baltimore Ravens surprisingly signed tight end Mark Andrews to a contract extension during the 2025 season, it was more likely than not that Isaiah Likely would be out the door in free agency. This came to pass, with the former Coastal Carolina TE signing a three-year pact with the New York Giants. Ironically, this move reunites him with head coach John Harbaugh, who presumably had some part to play in extending Andrews and pushing Likely towards the exit…still, that was then.

How big a role can Likely carve out for himself with the Giants? And as fantasy managers, how interested should we be in Likely when we start drafting this summer?
