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.

Quentin Johnston News
Tuesday, June 23, 9:32 AM
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston has been excited about new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel's scheme going into the 2026 season, and it could allow him to be even more dangerous in terms of yards after the catch, according to Omar Navarro of Chargers.com. "I feel like the scheme he has is set up for the yards after catch," Johnston said. "There's not always a lot of room for that in this league, but just showing us different angles and stuff to get to the ball after the catch and turning, going across the field and doing different stuff in the plays he has built for us." In his final collegiate season at TCU, almost half of Johnston's receiving yards came after the catch (532 of 1,068 yards). The 24-year-old former 21st overall pick in 2023 has had trouble with drops in the past, but he has also improved in each of his three years in the NFL, and he's led the team with eight touchdowns in each of the last two years. With veteran Keenan Allen unlikely to re-sign, Johnston could take another step forward in McDaniel's offense in 2026 as a big-play threat for the Bolts and fantasy managers alike. RotoBaller has Johnston ranked as the No. 49 fantasy WR for the upcoming campaign.
