Isaiah Likely Will Lead the Giants in Receptions, Receiving Yards and Touchdown Catches on the Way to a Top-Five PPR Finish at His Position...there's a legitimate chance he spends a big chunk of the 2026 season as the top option in the Giants' passing game.

STACKED’s take

Likely projected to lead Giants in receiving and finish top-five TE; breakout year.

The source projects Likely will lead the Giants in receptions, receiving yards, and touchdown catches on the way to a top-five PPR finish at tight end in 2026. At 26 years old, Likely is out from under Mark Andrews' shadow and making big money with New York. The source argues there's a legitimate chance he becomes the top option in the Giants' passing game, especially with uncertainty around Malik Nabers' Week 1 availability and the rest of the pass-catching corps being "a whole lotta blah." With the Giants playing from behind regularly, Likely is positioned for a major breakout.
