Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd has played as well as expected so far this season. While he didn't do much in Week 1, he had a better showing in Week 2 versus the Baltimore Ravens, catching six of his eight targets for 52 yards. However, with Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins in the mix, it will be tough for Boyd to remain involved consistently throughout the 2023-24 campaign. The Bengals will meet the Rams in Week 3, a team that's allowed the sixth-fewest yards to opposing wideouts this season. For that reason, Boyd is a risky fantasy option. But considering Joe Burrow (calf) might not be under center, it may be best to give Boyd the week off.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins didn't catch any of his eight targets in the Week 1 loss to the Browns. Yet, he turned it around during the Week 2 meeting with Baltimore, amassing eight receptions (12 targets) for 89 yards and two touchdowns. At this point, Higgins appears to be a safer fantasy option than Ja'Marr Chase, who hasn't played at an elite level yet in 2023-24. As a result, the 24-year-old should remain in every fantasy starting lineup in Week 3 despite a challenging matchup with the Rams on tap. However, it will be tough for Higgins to have another solid showing, even more so if Joe Burrow (calf) can't suit up.
