Likely is being targeted regularly by his new Giants quarterback in early training camp, especially with Malik Nabers still on the shelf. Per Jake Ciely of The Athletic, Likely could join the group of tight ends who lead their teams in targets, particularly if Nabers misses the start of the season. Despite limited usage in Baltimore, Likely has an attractive 11.6 yards per reception (seventh-best, min. 100 targets) and 5.5 yards after catch per reception, ahead of Dalton Kincaid, Sam LaPorta, and Brock Bowers. While there are no guarantees, Likely offers significant upside for a tight end taken outside the top-10 at the position.
