Tee Higgins News

Tee Higgins Held in Check in Win Over Dolphins

Sunday, October 11, 5:45 PM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (groin/neck) was held to just two receptions for 22 yards (11.0 yards per catch) on four targets in a 31-24 victory over the Miami Dolphins in Week 5. The receptions and yardage totals were both season lows for Higgins, but quarterback Joe Burrow also threw for a season-low 190 yards. Higgins is dealing with injuries to his groin and neck, and entered the game with a questionable tag after missing practice on Thursday and Friday before logging a full session on Friday. There were questions regarding whether or not Higgins would be on a snap count against the Dolphins, but he played 45 out of 64 offensive snaps for the Bengals (70.3%). Higgins was behind fellow wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase (77) and tight end Erick All Jr. (25) in receiving yards on Sunday. However, Higgins leads Cincinnati in receiving yards with 423 and has recorded a touchdown in 2026. He will remain a must-start fantasy football wide receiver following the Bengals' Week 6 bye week.

Garrett Wilson News

Garrett Wilson's Huge Touchdown Catch Fuels 100-Yard Showing

Sunday, October 11, 7:02 PM

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson caught seven of his 11 targets for 104 receiving yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 5 win over the Cleveland Browns. After a disappointing outing in Week 4, Wilson got back on track this weekend with his second-best fantasy performance of the season. The 26-year-old has solidified himself as a WR1 in fantasy football, and he has fared better with Geno Smith at quarterback than he did with a combination of Justin Fields, Tyrod Taylor, and Brady Cook in 2025. Although we can't guarantee that Smith will be able to support top-tier production from Wilson every week, the duo has certainly looked solid so far. Wilson is a potential WR1 option for Week 6 against New England, but his exact outlook will depend on whether Patriots cornerbacks Christian Gonzalez (shoulder) and Carlton Davis III (neck) play next Sunday.
