Who Should I Start? Tee Higgins or Jaylen Waddle

Monday, November 18, 12:22 AM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins caught nine of his 13 targets for 148 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. This was easily Higgins' best game of the year, bringing his season totals to 38 catches, 489 yards, and four touchdowns through six contests. Although the 25-year-old doesn't generate as much buzz as teammate Ja'Marr Chase, he's still a very intriguing fantasy option who has repeatedly shown that he can co-exist alongside Chase in Cincinnati's offense. Higgins will rank among the top 24 fantasy receivers when the Bengals return to action in Week 13.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has had nothing short of a disappointing season for fantasy football. Waddle will look to bounce back in Sunday's matchup against the New England Patriots. Miami has asked him to do more in the run-blocking game, and big plays have been hard to come by this year with all the two high safety looks they've been getting. The opportunities have also been limited, with an emphasis on getting the run game going early. He hasn't had over four receptions in a game since Week 1. Week 12 presents a matchup with a Patriots defense that ranks 24th in fantasy points allowed to wide receivers per game. While this might sound like great news, trusting Waddle enough to put him in your lineup is tough. Start him at your own risk, but don't be surprised if he has another letdown performance as he comes in as WR33 in RotoBallers Week 12 rankings.
