Isaiah Likely caught 5-of-6 targets for 53 yards and a touchdown in the Giants’ Week 9 win over the Eagles.

Although it was another down day in the yardage department by his recent standards, Likely got the fantasy job done with his score and five receptions. It also wasn’t a bad outcome in a contest where J.J. McCarthy missed time with a hip injury and the Giants attempted only 27 throws vs. a reeling Eagles team. Likely’s touchdown was a five-yarder where he took advantage of mass defensive confusion at the goal line. It is unclear if McCarthy will be ready for Thursday’s short-week date with the Commanders, but Likely will remain a high-end QB1 even if Jameis Winston returns under center.
