Overview
- The Giants agreed to a reported three-year, $40 million deal with former Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely, with incentives up to $47.5 million.
- New York reached a one-year agreement with defensive back Ar’Darius Washington, who returned late in 2025 after a torn Achilles and projects as depth in the secondary.
- Early additions and retentions also include right tackle Jermaine Eluemunor, linebacker Tremaine Edmunds, punter Jordan Stout, kicker Jason Sanders (pending a physical), fullback Patrick Ricard, cornerback Greg Newsome II, linebacker Micah McFadden, and wide receiver Isaiah Hodgins.
- Analysts expect Likely to be featured as a move or jumbo-slot target in Matt Nagy’s offense, complementing inline tight end Theo Johnson in frequent 12-personnel looks.
- Reaction to the Likely contract ranges from high-upside praise to cost concerns, reflecting his limited volume in Baltimore and recent foot injury as roster building continues.
