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.

Christian Watson News
Thursday, March 5, 7:12 AM
Green Bay Packers Wide Receiver Christian Watson missed the first seven weeks of 2025 with an ACL injury sustained late in 2024, but in his ten games played, he delivered a 17-game pace of 60 catches for 1,039 yards and 10 touchdowns, finishing as a top-5 fantasy wide receiver three times. Four-year veteran Romeo Doubs, who led the team in targets, receptions, and yards in 2025, is now set to test free agency, leaving an opening for Watson to take over as the Packers' unquestioned WR1. Green Bay is expected to have tight end Tucker Kraft back in the fold after pacing the team in receiving before missing the final nine games with an ACL injury of his own, and speedster Matthew Golden is expected to take a leap after finishing his rookie campaign without a regular-season touchdown catch. So while the competition for Doubs' potentially vacated targets could be stiff, Watson's career-high 2.51 yards per route run led the team in 2025, and he will look to thrive in a potentially expanded role in 2026.
