Tee Higgins News
Wednesday, June 17, 5:30 PM
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins has been undervalued at times because he's playing alongside Ja'Marr Chase. Despite being the No. 2 option, Higgins has been a stud since being drafted by the Bengals in 2020. During his first three seasons, Higgins finished with 1,000-plus receiving yards in two of those first three years. Unfortunately, injuries have slowed down Higgins from putting up elite numbers, but he's hopeful to put those lingering issues behind him. This past season, Higgins finished with 59 receptions, 846 receiving yards, and 11 touchdowns. Those are fairly impressive numbers given the fact that Higgins is doing that with quarterback Joe Burrow being injured for part of two of the last three seasons. When this offense is healthy, Higgins can put together high-end WR2 numbers with the possibility of being a WR1.

Van Jefferson News
Friday, March 13, 12:25 PM
The Washington Commanders are signing veteran free-agent wide receiver Van Jefferson (forearm) to an undisclosed deal on Friday, a source told Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic. Even though it's wide open right now behind WR1 Terry McLaurin in D.C., the 29-year-old Jefferson will most likely serve as a depth option for the Commanders in 2026. The team also brought back Dyami Brown on Friday after he spent his first four seasons with Washington. Jefferson ended last year on Injured Reserve due to a forearm injury. Before his injury, the former second-round pick by the Los Angeles Rams in 2020 caught 29 of his 52 targets for 350 yards and one touchdown in 16 games (seven starts) with the Tennessee Titans. Jefferson's career year in 2021 with the Rams in his second year in the league has been the outlier, as he hasn't come anywhere close to the 802 receiving yards and six TDs he had that season. The Commanders are likely to bring in more receiving help via free agency and the draft, which would push Jefferson further down the WR depth chart.
