Expert takes

Tee Higgins
  • “The only options behind Ja’Marr Chase and Higgins are former CFL star Dohnte Meyers , undrafted free agent (UDFA) Mitchell Tinsley and Day 3 rookie Colbie Young . With Higgins nursing an adductor strain, he may miss Week 5, but he should be in a great spot long term. I have Higgins as my WR14, well ahead of his WR18 ECR ranking.”

    Jim Moorman· Oct 6, 2026
  • “Chase got in a full practice on Friday while Higgins was full as well.”

    FFToday· Oct 11, 2026
  • “Ja’Marr Chase & Tee Higgins | WRs, Cincinnati Bengals (QUES) Both Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins are questionable heading into Sunday. Chase needs to clear concussion protocol, while Higgins has groin and neck injuries holding him back. We could see this go several ways, but if one of them is out, Dohnte Meyers has some flex appeal in a strong matchup against Miami.”

    Jonathan Lange· Oct 10, 2026

  • “Higgins has the following stats in three games this year: 82.3% route participation rate 22.3% target share 0.25 targets per route run (TPRR) 26.0% first-read rate 44.8% air yard share 4.7 receptions per game 81.3 receiving yards per game 2.62 yards per route run (Y/RR) 1 red-zone target 1 end-zone target 1 receiving touchdown 14.80 DraftKings points per game 12.47 FanDuel points per game Higgins is a fantastic Robin and can post the best numbers in Cincinnati’s wideout room in any given week. Mike Gesicki is a tight end in name only. He’s a wideout in practice, and with Andrei Iosivas injured, the faux tight end can keep playing well.”

    Josh Shepardson· Oct 1, 2026
  • ““ Tee Higgins is one of my favorite sell highs this week. He won’t completely fall off, but his value could be at a season high right now. He is benefiting from Chase Brown underperforming at the moment, and he has had back-to-back weeks of outperforming Ja’Marr Chase in the yardage department, which I just can’t see happening long term.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Sep 30, 2026
  • “Chase and Higgins are both at 6.6%, which fits perfectly with my Burrow stance. I want plenty of CIN double stacks rather than choosing only one. Pairing Chase Brown with Burrow + Ja’Marr Chase and/or Tee Higgins is my favorite stack of the week in mega large field (10k+ entries).”

    Chris Cash· Sep 26, 2026
  • “Joe Burrow may not be a must-start this week, but Chase Brown , Ja’Marr Chase , and Tee Higgins are all auto-starts.”

    Jordan Pullett· Sep 25, 2026
  • “Tee Higgins – 10 targets, 5 rec Ja’Marr Chase – 9 targets, 7 rec The Bengals WR duo also doesn’t need much examination. Through two weeks, Higgins holds a slight 16-13 advantage in total targets. They will each have big games this season, and Joe Burrow will be the biggest beneficiary if both star WRs stay healthy.”

    Aaron Larson· Sep 22, 2026
  • “Tee Higgins isn’t Cincinnati’s top pass-catching weapon, but he’s quite good. Higgins has rattled off the following numbers in 24 games with Burrow playing at least 20 snaps since 2023: 81.0% route participation rate 20.9% target share 0.23 TPRR 36.7% air yards share 5.1 receptions per game 64.3 receiving yards per game 1.95 Y/RR 37 targets inside the 20-yard line 26 end-zone targets 16 receiving touchdowns 15.85 DraftKings points per game 15.38 expected DraftKings points per game 12.93 FanDuel points per game 12.85 expected FanDuel points per game Tampa Bay’s cornerbacks are ill-equipped to handle Higgins and his running mate at wide receiver.”

    Josh Shepardson· Sep 10, 2026
  • “Tee Higgins (WR – CIN) While Higgins has a history of injuries, he has finished in the WR15 through WR19 range in PPR scoring in three of the past four years, including 2025, despite Joe Burrow missing over half the season. Despite averaging slightly fewer targets per game with Burrow (6.7 vs.”

    Mike Fanelli· Aug 27, 2026
  • “Higgins is right behind Burden in LTV, and if Burden were to match Higgins in scoring, well, I’d say that would be a successful season.”

    Jonathan Lange· Jul 21, 2026
  • “We haven't seen a full season out of Tee Higgins since 2022, but he's a TD machine when healthy. Higgins has 21 receiving TDs over the last two years; only Chase, Amon-Ra, and Davante Adams have more.”

    Colt Williams· Jul 8, 2026
  • “Higgins has been propped up by some massive touchdown totals the past two seasons. After 24 scores over his first four seasons, Higgins found pay dirt 21 times in 27 games between 2024 and 2025. With numbers like that, Higgins' expected fantasy points per game were at 11.3 last season, but the touchdowns pushed his actual average up to 14.1.”

    Wolf Trelles-Heard· Jul 7, 2026
  • “Over the past two seasons, Higgins has finished as the WR5 and WR13 on a per-game basis. That said, his value can only go down from here. He's already 27.5 years old, so he's about to hit that age range where dynasty managers start getting antsy and unloading receivers before any decline starts.”

    Wolf Trelles-Heard· Jul 7, 2026
  • “Tee Higgins is undoubtedly the best WR "2" in the NFL. He ranks as our 18th WR, higher than 15 other teams' highest drafted pass catcher! He lined up out wide on 87.7% of his routes, the seventh-highest rate among all wide receivers, cementing his status as a primary boundary receiver.”

    Chris Cash· Jul 7, 2026
Javonte Williams
  • “Javonte Williams ran an inefficient 19/62 on the ground but found the endzone three times to finish as the RB3.”

    Jordan Pullett· Oct 10, 2026
  • “Williams is averaging only 4.0 yards per touch (the fewest of any RB1 this season), but he has 81.1% of the backfield touches (RB7), with 44% of his fantasy points coming directly from touchdown production. Only Derrick Henry (46.3%) has a higher touchdown dependency among top-40 backs through four weeks. While that adds some potential regression here, Williams is still attached to a home favorite and has that workload and scoring equity in his pocket.”

    Rich Hribar· Oct 6, 2026
  • “While Javonte Williams remains the clear lead option for the Cowboys, Goodson appears to have carved out the primary third-down and backup role. The most fascinating stat from Sunday? Goodson handled seven touches on just 11 total snaps .”

    Nate Henry· Sep 29, 2026
See 9 more
  • “Javonte Williams is averaging 2.6 yards per carry through two weeks, and half of his carries have gone for two or fewer yards. He ranks second-lowest in rushing first downs and has looked slower this season. The Cowboys’ offensive line ranks last in yards before contact.”

    Jordan Pullett· Sep 25, 2026
  • “The Cowboys offensive line has struggled without Tyler Smith , and it has shown with Williams averaging 3.4 and 2.5 rushing yards per attempt so far. It will get better for Williams, but it may not be this week. Baltimore has the makings to make this a track meet early against a dreadful Cowboys defense, leaving Dallas no option but to toss the ball around the park in Rio.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Sep 24, 2026
  • “While I believe the aforementioned Judkins and Javonte Williams are good backs, I am not sold that they are great. However, both RBs get nearly all of the work for their respective backfields. I’m no chemist, but I know that if you mix bad defenses with high-powered offenses, you often get fireworks.”

    Colt Williams· Sep 24, 2026
  • “Last year, Javonte Williams was a massive surprise in fantasy football to everyone, including me.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Sep 5, 2026
  • “Javonte Williams (RB – DAL) A breakout that surprised even his believers, as Williams finished RB11 in points per game after most expectations topped out at a volume-driven RB2.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Sep 3, 2026
  • “” – Aaron St Denis ( Fantasy Sports Advice Network ) Javonte Williams (RB – DAL) “If I end up with a late pick, Javonte Williams is the running back I’m targeting when I get to Round 3. Last year, he was awesome in his first year with Dallas, racking up 1,338 total yards and scoring 13 touchdowns.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Aug 30, 2026
  • “Javonte Williams is coming off a season with more than 1,200 rushing yards and is in a high-powered offense.”

    Richard Janvrin· Aug 22, 2026
  • “Javonte Williams (RB – DAL) was actually the RB1 in fantasy points per game last year, yet he’s being drafted like a mid-tier RB2 this year.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Aug 10, 2026
  • “Round 5: DeVonta Smith (WR – PHI) Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams was staring me in the face, but with a FLEX spot still available in a PPR league, I couldn’t pass up DeVonta Smith .”
