EXPLOSION: Why Isaiah Likely Will TRANSFORM New York Giants Offense May 26, 2026

Show notes

New York Giants tight end Isaiah Likely is poised for a breakout season as John Harbaugh’s squad aims to redefine its identity. Can the physical tight end elevate the Giants' passing attack?

Traina also scrutinizes hefty contracts of three players, questioning whether the Giants are getting enough return on investment.

Drawing inspiration from the New York Knicks’ gritty playoff run, the show explores what lessons the Giants can take from the Knicks's amazing season to help themselves in their own rise from the ashes.
