From the episode

I'm slightly JJ McCarthy curious but I I'm for the most part my expectation is he's gonna suck and my expectation is that Malik neighbors and Isaiah likely will suffer the consequences for JJ McCarthy spurt of reasonable results

Negative signalProjection

Likely faces downgrade risk with JJ McCarthy taking over Giants QB duties.

Isaiah Likely, like Malik Nabers, will likely suffer consequences from JJ McCarthy's expected regression from his fourth-quarter performance against New Orleans; while both remain technically playable in pass-heavy scenarios, the source is avoiding the Giants offense this week and expects McCarthy to underperform, making Likely a downgrade play.
