Tee Higgins Poised For Another Strong Performance In Week 8

Friday, October 30, 12:55 PM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins will take on the Tennessee Titans at home in Week 8. Higgins racked up the yards against the Baltimore Ravens in last week's victory. The wideout had six catches for 148 yards and a touchdown in the 35-13 win in Week 7. Higgins has arguably been the better WR in the high-powered Cincinnati wide receiver room this season, outscoring Ja'Marr Chase while not being a first-round pick for fantasy. Higgins will get the chance to continue his strong start to the season against a beatable Titans defense at home this weekend. Higgins has been playing great football through the first half of the season and should continue playing well as long as Joe Burrow is throwing him the ball. Higgins is ranked WR11 in our RotoBaller Week 8 PPR rankings, making him a low-end WR1 for this week's contest.

Zay Flowers News

Zay Flowers Flourishing in Baltimore's Offense

Saturday, October 31, 6:49 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers is coming off a massive performance in a Week 7 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, in which he recorded eight receptions for 137 yards (17.1 yards per reception) and a touchdown. Flowers had a strong connection with backup quarterback Tyler Huntley, recording 22 receptions in the three games that Huntley started. Now, Flowers gets his starting quarterback, Lamar Jackson (ankle), back in a Week 8 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. The Bills defense has struggled to defend the pass, ranking second-to-last in the NFL in passing yards allowed per game (285.8). Through six appearances in 2026, Flowers has amassed 40 receptions (on 53 targets) for 608 yards (15.2 yards per reception) and three touchdowns. He has added three receptions for 34 yards (11.3 yards per attempt). Flowers ranks as RotoBaller's No. 5 wideout for Week 8, and he remains a must-start WR1 player.
