Who Should I Start? Deebo Samuel or Tee Higgins

Friday, September 29, 5:53 PM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel (ribs, knee) didn't practice on Friday, marking his third consecutive absence. The 27-year-old caught six of his 12 targets for 129 yards and a touchdown versus the Giants in Week 3. However, he's now riding a questionable tag, although there's a good chance he won't be out there in Week 4 against the Arizona Cardinals. Fortunately, Brandon Aiyuk (shoulder) practiced in full on Friday, so he'd be in line to see more looks from Brock Purdy if Samuel doesn't suit up. But as always, fantasy managers should monitor things leading up to kickoff on Sunday.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins hasn't met expectations this season. Although he played fantastic in Week 2 versus Baltimore, he caught only two of his 16 targets in Weeks 1 and 3 combined. The 24-year-old dropped some wide-open passes in the win over the Rams on Monday night, so he's certainly looking to get back on track on Sunday versus Tennessee. Understandably, fantasy managers will find it hard to trust him in Week 4. Yet, he's still a top wideout in the National Football League. With Joe Burrow (calf) looking healthier than he has in months, Higgins can't be benched in any fantasy format, even though he's a volatile option.
