Who Should I Start? Tee Higgins or Ladd McConkey

Saturday, December 6, 4:03 PM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (concussion) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Fortunately, he was a full participant in the following two sessions and doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's meeting with the Buffalo Bills. The wideout had been on a roll heading into the Week 12 loss to the Patriots, catching at least one touchdown in his previous four appearances. However, after taking a hit during that contests, he didn't suit up for the Week 13 win over the Ravens. With Joe Burrow recently back on the field after missing over two months, Higgins will have one of the best quarterbacks in the National Football League at his disposal. Hopefully, that will remain the case moving ahead. Although Higgins can be streaky, his ceiling may be a bit higher in Week 14, considering Sunday's contest is anticipated to feature plenty of scoring from both sides.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey caught four passes for 39 yards and one touchdown, leading the team with six targets during their 31-14 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. With Justin Herbert managing a fractured non-throwing hand sustained early in the game, the Chargers relied heavily on the run game. They kept most throws short behind PFF's league-worst offensive line, limiting big-play opportunities for all Bolts' receivers. Still, McConkey's continued involvement in the red zone is encouraging. Next Monday night, a top-10 secondary from the Philadelphia Eagles awaits, and Herbert's status remains uncertain. If Trey Lance starts, all pass catchers could see reduced production. However, Philly's defense has been notably vulnerable to slot receivers, giving McConkey a potential upside as the most natural fit to exploit their weakness.
