Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins caught 2-of-8 targets for 21 yards in Monday's 19-16 win over the Los Angeles Rams. The 24-year-old didn't make his first catch until the middle of the second quarter on a third-and-long checkdown, and he dropped a pass on the ensuing series. Higgins proceeded to push off on Ahkello Witherspoon to set back a drive following a Bengals takeaway that put them in great field position. He chipped in a 13-yard play on Cincinnati's only touchdown drive of the game but committed another drop in the third quarter, which stalled what amounted into a field-goal drive. Higgins had to make a brief exit with cramps to rub salt in the wound but returned at the start of the fourth. His uneven start to the year may have fantasy managers questioning their trust in him, but Higgins nonetheless belongs on the WR1/2 fringe in Week 4's cushy draw with the Tennessee Titans.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson caught seven of his 13 targets for 149 yards and a touchdown in the team's 28-24 loss to the Chargers in Week 3. Jefferson found the end zone for the first time this season, as he and quarterback Kirk Cousins connected on a 52-yard pass to take the lead in the fourth quarter. Jefferson has been on a roll to start his fourth season, as he has amassed 458 receiving yards through the team's first three games. He will remain one of the most valuable assets in fantasy football moving forward as he looks to keep it rolling in Week 4 versus the Panthers.
