Who Should I Start? Antonio Brown or Tee Higgins

Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio reports that former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown has fled the United States while evading a warrant for an attempted murder charge. The incident stems from a shooting outside a celebrity boxing event in Miami on May 16, in which he claimed he was the victim of an assault. However, it's alleged that Brown "punched a man during a brawl, then grabbed a firearm from a security officer and fired two shots as he chased the same individual." Anything the former wideout says at this point must be taken with a grain of salt. However, if he's being truthful, the warrant for his arrest won't be resolved anytime soon.

Trainers were looking at Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins' left ankle during training camp practice on Thursday, according to Jeremy Rauch. Higgins got his leg tangled up during a play and was seen hobbling off the field. Higgins and the rest of Cincy's starters were already scheduled to be held out of the preseason finale on Saturday against the Indianapolis Colts. The 26-year-old has a history of dealing with nagging injuries, so this isn't what fantasy managers want to see right before the start of the 2025 regular season. While it doesn't sound like Higgins' injury is serious, it's something to watch for heading into Week 1 of the regular season. Higgins only played in 12 games for the second straight year due to injuries in 2024, but he still managed 73 catches, 911 yards and a career-high 10 touchdowns in Cincy's high-octane offense. He's on the WR1/2 borderline in fantasy.
