Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or Tee Higgins

Friday, November 22, 5:37 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin posted his worst outing of the season last Thursday evening but should be poised to return to fantasy stardom in Week 12 facing the Dallas Cowboys. In Week 11, McLaurin brought in just one of his two targets for ten yards. Before this disappointing showing, McLaurin has averaged a stellar 17.8 PPR points per game with 84.0 yards and 4.9 receptions per game since Week 3. During this stretch, the Ohio State product saw an impressive 6.8 targets per game. Operating as the clear top wideout in the DMV, McLaurin should be in a great position to return to his high-end WR2 status, facing a Dallas secondary that has allowed the 16th-most PPR points to opposing wideouts this season.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins caught nine of his 13 targets for 148 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. This was easily Higgins' best game of the year, bringing his season totals to 38 catches, 489 yards, and four touchdowns through six contests. Although the 25-year-old doesn't generate as much buzz as teammate Ja'Marr Chase, he's still a very intriguing fantasy option who has repeatedly shown that he can co-exist alongside Chase in Cincinnati's offense. Higgins will rank among the top 24 fantasy receivers when the Bengals return to action in Week 13.
