Tee Higgins News
Friday, May 1, 12:19 PM
Across 15 games in 2025, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins recorded 59 receptions for 846 yards and 11 touchdowns on 98 targets. Even with Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow sidelined for a significant chunk of the season by a toe injury, Higgins proved capable of providing solid production, particularly in the red zone. Injuries remain a red flag in Higgins' fantasy profile, as he's missed 12 games over the past three seasons and battled concussion issues in 2025. Still, Higgins and Burrow are both entering the 2026 season healthy. Even with Bengals wideout Ja'Marr Chase likely to dominate targets in Cincinnati, Higgins has proven to be a must-start wide receiver when both he and Burrow are on the field. In dynasty formats, managers could have an intriguing sell-high window on Higgins before the start of 2026.

Ladd McConkey News
Tuesday, May 5, 12:27 PM
After topping 80 catches and 1,100 receiving yards as a rookie in 2024, Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey turned in an underwhelming sophomore campaign in 2025. Across 16 games, the 24-year-old hauled in 66 receptions for 789 yards and six touchdowns on 106 targets. The Chargers will have a new play-caller in 2026 in former Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel, who could help McConkey rediscover his rookie-year magic. Former Chargers wideout Keenan Allen also remains unsigned, and his absence would likely allow McConkey to spend more time in the slot in 2026. Los Angeles does have other capable pass-catchers in wide receiver Quentin Johnston and tight end Oronde Gadsden, as well as 2025 second-round wideout Tre' Harris and 2026 fourth-round wideout Brenen Thompson. Still, McConkey has the highest upside of the bunch and should be the lead target-earner in McDaniel's revamped offense. In dynasty formats, McConkey could be a solid buy-low target entering 2026.
