Who Should I Start? Tee Higgins or Rome Odunze

Monday, December 8, 3:26 PM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (concussion) experienced concussion-like symptoms on Sunday night and Monday morning and is back in the league's concussion protocol, according to head coach Zac Taylor. Higgins suffered a concussion in the Week 12 loss to the New England Patriots and was held out of the Thanksgiving night win over the Baltimore Ravens in Week 13. The 26-year-old returned on Sunday in the loss to the Buffalo Bills and enjoyed having quarterback Joe Burrow back, as he caught six of a season-high 11 targets for 92 yards and two touchdowns in the 39-34 loss. Higgins had a big game, but he slammed his head on the snowy turf late in the contest and is now in danger of missing the Week 15 divisional rematch with the Ravens. If Higgins misses another game, Andrei Iosivas will be back on the flex map for the start of the fantasy football playoffs in most leagues. Iosivas had just one catch on Thanksgiving with Higgins out, but it was a 29-yard touchdown reception.

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore is likely to see an increase in targets in Week 14 against the Green Bay Packers. It's been a quiet season for the perennial 1,000-yard receiver, who is averaging the fewest receptions and yards of his career this year. This could be the bounce-back game that Moore and his fantasy managers have been waiting for. Rome Odunze (foot) has been ruled out for Week 14, which gives Moore the chance to see his usual WR1 volume. Although the Packers' defense has been strong against wide receivers this season, Moore has only scored under double-digit fantasy points once in his six career matchups against this defense. For the first time since early in the season, Moore is a clear starting option that fantasy managers should feel confident about placing in their lineups.
