Tee Higgins News
Monday, July 13, 11:19 AM
Across 15 games in 2025, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins recorded 59 receptions for 846 yards and 11 touchdowns on 98 targets. As an elite ball-winner, Higgins has established himself as one of the best end zone targets in the NFL by recording 21 touchdown catches over his last 27 games played. However, his target upside is capped by the presence of superstar Bengals wideout Ja'Marr Chase. Higgins' profile also comes with health questions, as he's missed 12 games over the past three seasons due to a variety of injuries. Additionally, the Bengals' passing offense is highly dependent on the health of quarterback Joe Burrow, who has missed at least seven games in two out of the last three seasons. While Higgins is a threat to finish as a fantasy WR1 in any given week, he's not the most consistent producer for fantasy managers due to his situation in Cincinnati and his health concerns. In dynasty formats, managers may want to explore selling high.

Nico Collins News
Wednesday, July 8, 11:50 AM
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins is not the easiest dynasty player to buy right now, but that does not make him someone to dump at a discount. Collins has cleared 1,000 yards in three straight seasons, including 71 catches for 1,117 yards and six touchdowns across 15 games last year. He is still only 27, still tied to C.J. Stroud, and Houston just bumped up his pay for 2026 and 2027 while keeping him under contract through next season. The price is the tricky part. RotoBaller has Collins as the WR8 in 2026 redraft rankings and WR13 in its July dynasty wide receiver rankings, so managers are already paying for a stable WR1. Tank Dell, Jayden Higgins, Jaylin Noel, and Dalton Schultz also give Stroud more places to go with the ball. Collins probably is not a screaming dynasty buy unless the price has softened, but he remains a strong hold and a reasonable contender target if his manager is worried about the deeper target tree.
