Overview

  • Multiple outlets report a three-year, $40 million contract with incentives up to $47.5 million that becomes official when the new league year opens Wednesday.
  • Likely, 25, departs Baltimore after the Ravens extended Mark Andrews in December, following a 2025 season affected by a fractured foot and notable ball-security errors.
  • New York plans to feature Likely as a versatile receiving tight end in Matt Nagy’s offense, with heavy slot and perimeter usage to support quarterback Jaxson Dart and wideout Malik Nabers.
  • The price point reportedly places Likely among the NFL’s highest-paid tight ends, with one report calling him the league’s No. 3 at the position.
  • The Giants also re-signed blocking tight end Chris Manhertz and reportedly reached a deal with former Ravens punter Jordan Stout, while Wan’Dale Robinson is expected to leave in free agency.
