Tee Higgins News
Sunday, October 4, 12:40 PM
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is dealing with an abductor injury, head coach Zac Taylor said after Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Charlie Clifford. Higgins was hurt after making a 19-yard catch late in the fourth quarter and needed attention from the training staff. He missed the next play but returned later in the drive, catching a pass on his first snap back. Higgins finished with 11 receptions for 157 yards, easily his best receiving total through four games. Taylor did not provide a timetable or any additional details on the injury immediately after the game.

Michael Pittman Jr. News
Wednesday, September 30, 5:37 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. managed just two catches for 16 yards on five targets in Week 3 after missing Week 2 with a foot injury. Pittman and quarterback Aaron Rodgers were clearly not on the same page in last week's win, but the 29-year-old could turn things around against the Cleveland Browns on Thursday Night Football. The Browns have given up five touchdowns and the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing receivers through the first three weeks. Although Pittman was out-produced by fellow wideouts DK Metcalf, Roman Wilson, and Ben Skowronek in his return, it was encouraging to see him play 73% of Pittsburgh's offensive snaps, trailing only Metcalf. An uptick in utilization will be worth monitoring in a favorable Week 4 matchup, but fantasy managers shouldn't consider putting Pittman in starting lineups just yet.
