The research behind Isaiah Likely over 4.5 Receptions

Isaiah Likely (Giants TE) has a receptions line of 4.5, and the pick is the over, in the Giants vs Commanders game on Nov 12, 2026 at 8:15 PM ET. The line is on PrizePicks.

The recent hit rates favor the over. He is at 80% over the last 5 games and 60% over the last 10. The season rate is 67%, with an average of 5 receptions. The picture fades over a longer span, though. The last 15 games show 47%, and the head-to-head rate is 50% on a 1/2 sample, which is too small to lean on. In the 2026 regular season log, he is at or over the line in 6 of 8 games, averaging 5.8. Two games came in under, with 2 receptions on 9/27 and 2 on 10/25. The 10/11 game at Washington went for 11 receptions against a 4.5 line.

The matchup also points toward the over. The Commanders rank 27th against tight ends in receptions, allowing 4.9 per game. They rank 28th in targets allowed, at 6.6 per game. Over the last 5 games they rank 30th in receptions allowed. Likely holds 26.5% of the Giants' targets, second on the team behind M. Nabers at 30%.

The risk is the line itself. 4.5 sits just below his 5 per game average, so a couple of quiet games would push him under.
