Tee Higgins Looking for Another Strong Showing in Week 8

Saturday, October 25, 11:20 AM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is coming off his best performance of the 2025 campaign, amassing six catches (10 targets) for 96 yards and a touchdown in the Thursday night win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. While Ja'Marr Chase played better, Higgins still got things done for fantasy managers. With the Bengals one victory away from a .500 record, the club will take on the winless Jets in Week 8. New York's injury report is loaded heading into the contest. However, regarding the defensive side of the ball, Sauce Gardner (concussion) has already been ruled out. Of course, this is a tough blow for the Jets. Brandon Stephens will try to do most of the heavy lifting in the secondary. Unfortunately, that may not be enough, so it appears Higgins has a strong chance of having another potent fantasy outing on Sunday, making him a starting option in all formats.

Zay Flowers a High-End WR2 in Week 8

Saturday, October 25, 10:39 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers has been cleared from the injury report after being a full participant in practice all week. The speedy wideout has struggled quite a bit with Cooper Rush under center, as has the entire offense, but could have Lamar Jackson (hamstring) back against the Chicago Bears. Even if Tyler Huntley has to start, Flowers has a bit of a higher ceiling than before. His matchup would most likely be Kyler Gordon, who has given up a 100% catch rate and an average of 11.5 yards per target. Overall, the Bears' defense has allowed an average of 34.32 fantasy points per game to opposing receiver groups and 10 touchdown receptions so far. Fantasy managers can look to Flowers as a high-end WR2 in this matchup.
