Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (undisclosed) converted 13 targets into seven receptions for 110 yards during Thursday's season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles. However, he also had four drops, including three on Dallas' final drive of the game. After a brief trip to the medical tent, Lamb emerged and appeared to take responsibility for his late-game miscues. Perhaps the drops can simply be blamed on early-season jitters, as Lamb has a track record of being a top receiver in the NFL. After all, he still managed to post 18 fantasy points in PPR leagues. Managers should remain confident that he'll be a dependable fantasy WR1 going forward.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins spent all last season looking for a new contract. He also missed time due to injury. However, the wideout was productive when healthy and finished the year with 911 yards and 10 touchdowns off 73 catches (12 games). Equipped with a new four-year contract, Higgins should be ready to produce when the Bengals meet the Browns in Week 1. He scored in each of his two encounters with Cleveland during the 2024 campaign. With this expected to be one of the highest-scoring games of the week, Higgins has a chance of exceeding expectations for fantasy managers. He's a must-start on Sunday, although most know that already.
