Who Should I Start? Tee Higgins or Ricky Pearsall

Tuesday, November 11, 7:54 PM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is coming off his best performance of the season. Higgins hauled in seven of his nine targets for 121 yards and two touchdowns during the Week 9 loss to the Chicago Bears. The Bengals are hopeful that the bye week hasn't cooled off Higgins. The 26-year-old has scored four touchdowns over his last three games. He'll head into a rematch against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 11. A defense that he burned for 96 yards and a touchdown during their last meeting. Fantasy managers should expect another big performance out of Higgins this weekend.

The San Francisco 49ers are hoping to get wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) back at practice this week, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic. The 49ers have been hopeful of getting Pearsall back from a PCL sprain that he suffered back in the Week 4 loss against the Jacksonville Jaguars for several weeks now, but it has not happened. The 25-year-old former first-rounder has not practiced or played since injuring his right knee, and even if he's able to get back onto the practice field this week, it doesn't mean he'll be active on Sunday for a Week 11 divisional matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. "Hopefully the next two days go good, and if they do, he'll be back out there. He had a good weekend," head coach Kyle Shanahan said. The Niners have been without both Pearsall and quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) since Week 4. When Pearsall does return, he could be the No. 3 target in the passing game behind Jauan Jennings and tight end George Kittle.
