Who Should I Start? Tee Higgins or Chris Olave

Saturday, December 27, 11:14 AM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins only has 49 catches for 720 yards in 13 games this season. On the other hand, he's certainly made up for it by amassing 10 touchdowns, tying him with Jaxson Smith-Njigba for the third-highest mark at the position. Granted, fantasy managers would love to see more volume for the former Clemson Tiger. Still, not many (if any) can say that they have scored at least once in six of their last seven appearances. With a favorable matchup with the injury-plagued Cardinals defense on tap for Week 17, Higgins ceiling is as high as ever. Keep him starting in all fantasy formats.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave caught eight of his 11 targets for 119 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 17 win over the Tennessee Titans. Olave has been the highest-scoring fantasy receiver over the last three weeks, and he ranks as the overall WR6 in full-PPR leagues this season. Through 16 games, he now has 100 catches, 1,163 yards, and nine touchdowns, all of which are career-highs. He has enjoyed a career resurgence in an upward-trending Saints offense led by rookie quarterback Tyler Shough. Olave will rank as a mid-to-high WR1 in the Saints' regular-season finale against the Atlanta Falcons next week, and he should maintain his status as a top-10 receiver heading into 2026 fantasy drafts.
