Likely projects as top-5 TE in targets with Nabers on PUP list; TE14 value.
JJ Zachariason's #1 sleeper TE pick for 2026. Likely, 26 years old, was acquired by New York from Baltimore and has shown flashes of big production when Mark Andrews was injured in Baltimore. His off-script playmaking ability pairs well with Jackson Dart's scrambling tendencies. Zachariason projects Likely as a top-5 TE in targets even with Malik Nabers fully healthy, and potentially the #2 target in New York if Nabers is healthy. Critically, Nabers is expected to start the year on the PUP list, giving Likely an early-season volume advantage with 8–10 targets per game to build ADP value. Currently TE14 on Underdog/FFPC/NFFC; Zachariason expects him to be more expensive in 2027 and "looked back on as a player that was a really good pick for you to make this year."
