Isaiah Likely vs. Arizona — Reliable Target Share Keeps Him in the TE1 Conversation

Likely continues to serve as the clear top tight end on New York's depth chart, commanding 23 targets through his first three games. With starting quarterback Jaxson Dart out following knee surgery, veteran Jameis Winston has taken over under center, keeping Likely heavily involved as a primary option over the middle.

Our models project Likely for about 4 catches and 45 receiving yards, equating to 11.0 fantasy points against Arizona. While his efficiency dipped over the last two weeks with just 46 yards on 15 targets, his consistent volume and red-zone upside make him a trustworthy fantasy starter.
