Who Should I Start? Tee Higgins or Emeka Egbuka

Saturday, September 20, 4:50 PM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins pulled in three of his four targets for 33 yards in the Week 1 win over the Browns. As expected, that performance didn't sit well with fantasy managers. In all fairness, the entire offense struggled in that one. While the wideout caught as many passes in Week 2 against Jacksonville, he totaled 56 yards. Even better, he scored a touchdown. Unfortunately, the Bengals will need to navigate their way forward without quarterback Joe Burrow (foot). In his place, Jake Browning will get the start. Naturally, many are concerned about how Burrow's absence will impact the offense. However, Higgins will need to piece together more than a few subpar showings with Browning under center before fantasy managers should consider benching him. For now, he's still a starting fantasy option, so managers in all formats can keep him rolling in Week 3 versus the Vikings.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka (hip) is officially active for Sunday's contest against the New York Jets. The rookie wideout was unable to practice on both Wednesday and Thursday before returning in a limited capacity on Friday. While Egbuka was cleared to get the start, Adam Schefter of ESPN noted that the former first-round pick could see his snaps monitored in this contest. Through his first two professional games, the Ohio State product has looked rather impressive, catching eight of his 13 targets for 96 yards and three touchdowns. Despite him potentially being limited in this game, managers should still view him as a solid WR3 in all leagues as he remains Baker Mayfield's No. 2 option in the passing attack.
