Tee Higgins News
Sunday, September 20, 12:55 PM
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins caught five passes for 95 yards in the 20-6 win over the Houston Texans on the road. Higgins paced the team in both receiving yards and targets in a big win over a strong Texans defense. While fellow wideout Ja'Marr Chase found the end zone twice, Higgins displayed his ability to keep pace as a top target on this team. Higgins will look to continue being effective next week on the road against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Higgins is in for another tough defensive matchup in Week 3, but he was just able to produce against the Texans defense so fantasy managers should feel confident in starting him. Higgins should be viewed as one of the strongest WR2 options with WR1 upside any given week.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba News
Sunday, September 20, 8:37 PM
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught nine of his 11 targets for 155 yards and three touchdowns during Sunday's Week 2 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Smith-Njigba was spectacular in the victory, offering top-tier production for backup quarterback Drew Lock in the absence of Sam Darnold (glute). The 24-year-old looks well on his way to ranking as the overall WR1 in PPR leagues this season, and he could defend his title as the Offensive Player of the Year. Through two games, he has 17 catches, 277 yards, and four touchdowns. Not only should managers be excited that Smith-Njigba has been playing so well, but also that he has been able to produce as a WR1 even with Lock as his quarterback. He remains a high-end WR1 every week, including Week 3 against the Washington Commanders.
