Tee Higgins News
Tuesday, February 17, 4:46 AM
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins continues to be a productive fantasy option, and he posted a new career-best finish as the overall WR15 in PPR leagues in 2025. Despite missing two games, Higgins exploded for 59 catches, 846 yards, and a career-high 11 touchdowns. It has been really encouraging to see the former second-round pick get more looks in the end zone. He has set a new career-high in touchdowns in each of the last two seasons, and during that two-year window, he has scored a total of 21 times. Some people might say that Higgins benefits from facing teams' No. 2 cornerbacks (because their top options cover Ja'Marr Chase), but that's a hard argument to make given that Higgins has also excelled in games that Chase has missed. There's a bit of an injury risk with Higgins, who had two concussions during the back half of the 2025 season, but his ceiling and floor both remain quite high. He's worth drafting as a high-end WR2 in 2026 fantasy drafts, and he's worth holding in dynasty leagues.

Chris Brooks News
Sunday, March 15, 2:22 PM
Green Bay Packers running back Chris Brooks has ascended into the No. 2 role on the depth chart ahead of the 2026 NFL season. The offseason is still young, and we certainly can't rule out the Packers adding another impact running back via the draft or free agency. However, as it stands, the 26-year-old Brooks is set to back up Josh Jacobs after the team saw Emanuel Wilson depart for the Seattle Seahawks. Originally a Miami Dolphin, Brooks spent the last two years in a depth role with Green Bay. He started to generate some buzz in 2025 as the Packers' backfield dealt with injuries, resulting in him finishing the year with 106 rushing yards, 13 catches, and 91 receiving yards. He didn't have a huge role by any means, but he did finish the regular season on a positive note with 13 carries for 61 yards in Week 18. Given that Jacobs is 28 years old and played through a lingering knee injury last year, it's not a bad idea for Jacobs' dynasty managers to trade a late-round pick for his handcuff, which, at the moment, would be Brooks.
