Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch posted his best game of the season in Week 6 due to a couple of injuries to the receiver corps. He finished as the WR32 in half-PPR formats with three receptions for nine yards and a touchdown on three targets from Jacoby Brissett. Marvin Harrison Jr. is set to return after being cleared from concussion protocol, but Zay Jones (knee) received a questionable tag. If Jones doesn't play, Dortch holds some value against the Green Bay Packers. Especially if Brissett is under center and the Cardinals dial up a similar game plan as last week. Since his value depends on a lot of moving parts, however, Dortch is quite the dart-throw option that is only worth playing in dire situations.

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins had the best game of his young NFL career in his team's Week 8 win over the San Francisco 49ers, recording four catches for 34 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. The 22-year-old has now hauled in 13 catches for 155 yards and two scores on 21 targets. Before Week 8, Higgins had not earned more than four targets in any game this season. It's worth noting that veteran Texans wideouts Nico Collins (concussion) and Christian Kirk (hamstring) were both sidelined against San Francisco, which certainly factored into Higgins' breakout game. However, Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud has attempted 88 passes over the team's last two games, which could signal that there will be more opportunity for Higgins even when Collins and Stroud return. In deeper leagues where available, Higgins could be worth stashing for his second-half breakout potential.
