Tee Higgins News
Sunday, October 11, 5:45 PM
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (groin/neck) was held to just two receptions for 22 yards (11.0 yards per catch) on four targets in a 31-24 victory over the Miami Dolphins in Week 5. The receptions and yardage totals were both season lows for Higgins, but quarterback Joe Burrow also threw for a season-low 190 yards. Higgins is dealing with injuries to his groin and neck, and entered the game with a questionable tag after missing practice on Thursday and Friday before logging a full session on Friday. There were questions regarding whether or not Higgins would be on a snap count against the Dolphins, but he played 45 out of 64 offensive snaps for the Bengals (70.3%). Higgins was behind fellow wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase (77) and tight end Erick All Jr. (25) in receiving yards on Sunday. However, Higgins leads Cincinnati in receiving yards with 423 and has recorded a touchdown in 2026. He will remain a must-start fantasy football wide receiver following the Bengals' Week 6 bye week.

Xavier Worthy News
Friday, October 16, 12:20 PM
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy will take on the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 6. Worthy had his best game of the season in terms of receiving yards in Week 4 before the team's bye week. Worthy reeled in four catches for 70 yards against the Las Vegas Raiders. Before that performance, the speedy wideout had failed to clear 25 receiving yards in any contest this season. The arrow is pointed up now with a week of rest and the absence of WR1 Rashee Rice heading into the weekend. The Chiefs offense should also have no issues imposing their will against the Chargers defense. With a potentially expanded role in a game that Kansas City should win, Worthy is set up to have his best game of the year at home in Week 6. Worthy should be viewed as a low-end WR2/3 option on Sunday. Fantasy managers dealing with injuries and bye weeks could do worse than Worthy this week.
