Tee Higgins News

Tee Higgins Could Go Off Against Jaguars

Friday, October 2, 12:19 PM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is coming off his best performance of the season in last week's loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Higgins racked up six catches for 90 yards and a touchdown in the 27-30 loss in Week 3. The Bengals WR2 can easily finish any week as a fantasy WR1 given the potency of this offense. Higgins will have the opportunity to go off again this week against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jaguars defense has been strong to start the year, but the duo of Ja'Marr Chase and Higgins is arguably the best one-two punch at wide receiver in the league. Higgins could also be heavily involved because of the strength of the Jaguars offense. Through the first three weeks, the Jacksonville offense has actually scored more points than the Bengals, so Cincinnati could be chasing points in this game. Higgins is ranked WR14 in our RotoBaller Week 4 PPR rankings, making him a borderline WR1/strong WR2 in this matchup. Fantasy managers should be excited about having a wideout in what should be a high-scoring game.

Khalil Shakir News

Khalil Shakir Is Getting Tougher to Use

Saturday, October 3, 7:20 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir has become a tough player to squeeze into fantasy lineups. He caught one pass for six yards against the Chargers and sits at eight receptions for 94 yards through three games. The Bills offense is moving the ball, but that hasn't produced enough weekly volume for Shakir with DJ Moore and Dalton Kincaid more involved. New England has allowed only 510 passing yards so far, which doesn't make this an obvious rebound spot either. Shakir is WR53 in RotoBaller's Week 4 rankings. There will be weeks when Josh Allen's offense pulls him into fantasy relevance, but the current target and yardage totals aren't strong enough to chase. He's better left on the bench in most standard-sized leagues.
