Tee Higgins Too Risky to Trust in Week 5

Saturday, October 4, 1:55 PM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins has been one of the biggest disappointments in fantasy football through the early part of the 2025 season. He's managed just 10 receptions for 136 yards and one touchdown on 20 targets, ranking 68th in target share (17.5%), 82nd in receiving yards, and 110th in receptions. Without Joe Burrow at quarterback, Higgins has struggled to command a consistent role in an offense that looks far less dynamic than it did in 2024. In Week 5, Higgins faces the Detroit Lions, who have allowed the 13th-fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. Detroit's defense has been steady, though they were exposed in Week 2 by Bears' WR Rome Odunze, who torched them for 100+ yards and two scores. Still, Higgins' involvement has been too shaky to trust. Given his lack of volume and inconsistent production, Higgins is a very risky play in Week 5.

Chris Olave Looks to Rebound Against Giants

Saturday, October 4, 9:12 AM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave posted season-low numbers in Week 4 against the Bills, managing just six targets, three receptions, and 20 yards. He salvaged some fantasy value with his first touchdown of 2025 but also threw an interception on a failed trick play with Spencer Rattler. Despite the down performance, Olave remains a focal point of the Saints' passing attack and draws a favorable Week 5 matchup with the Giants, who are allowing 235.5 passing yards per game, ranking 25th in the league. Olave profiles as a WR2/WR3 for that one.
