Who Should I Start? Keenan Allen or Tee Higgins

Tuesday, September 16, 2:05 PM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen once again made an impact in Monday night's 20-9 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders, catching five of seven targets for 61 yards and a touchdown. He remains reliable and continues to earn quarterback Justin Herbert's trust in key moments. His 33% red-zone target share through two games shows he's a primary option near the goal line. The Week 3 matchup against the Denver Broncos will be challenging, as their secondary is among the best in the league. However, Allen's ability to get separation on short routes and move the chains should keep him heavily involved. If the veteran stays healthy, he looks to be a strong WR2/3 with touchdown upside going forward.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins caught three of his four targets for 33 yards in the win over the Cleveland Browns. The wideout has been known to have some off weeks throughout his career. However, he wasn't the only one who struggled, with Joe Burrow throwing for 113 yards. Teammate, Ja'Marr Chase, didn't play much better, with the former LSU Tiger amassing only two grabs. All things considered, the Bengals likely did some work during the week leading up to Sunday's clash with the Jacksonville Jaguars, meaning there is a good chance the offense turns it around. While that doesn't mean Higgins will see the most attention from Burrow in Week 2, there's still reason to believe he'll perform at a higher level, considering Sunday's contest may be the highest-scoring game on the schedule.
