You need to leave the word "only" out because there is at least one other reason why photons emitted by galaxies far from us and travelling faster than (Edit: deleted "at" sub's "faster than") the speed of light can be seen.

As the photons travel towards us they eventually enter the region of spacetime where the expansion of the universe is less than c (expansion velocity being a function of distance from us) and so are then able to reach us and become visible.

All assuming current models are correct.
