In another injury plagued, but wildly productive year, it seemed a given that Higgins would be moving on from the Bengals this offseason. But in true "the best defense is a good offense" philosophy, Cinci re-signed both Chase and Higgins to multi-year deals, giving Joe Burrow both of his elite weapons for the next few seasons.
Despite starting only 12 games due to leg injuries, Higgins was a top-20 option, scoring a career high 10 touchdowns, and nearly reaching 1,000 yards. His 12.6 fantasy points per game average in standard leagues was tied for 2nd in the NFL, meaning his time on the field was ultra efficient! This passing offense can certainly support both Chase and Higgins as WR1 options, especially if Tee can manage to stay healthy for 15+ games. Unfortunately, his range of outcomes will simply come down to health. With that risk baked into his value, Higgins might be the ultimate risk/reward pick among fantasy receivers.

Trade: Bengals acquire QB Joe Flacco from Browns
Bengals trying to save their season
By: Mike Krueger | Tue Oct 7, 1:13 pm
|  | Trade: Browns are trading QB Joe Flacco and a 6th-round pick to the Bengals for a 5th-round pick. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Jake Browning has thrown 6 TDs and 8 INTs since taking over for Joe Burrow in Week 2. He looked particularly bad against the Lions in Week 5 (251-3-3), making numerous poor decisions before taking on a couple garbage time TDs. Flacco should draw some interest in 2-QB and Superflex leagues but isn't going to move the needle for Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins as the offensive line remains a serious problem. Look for the Bengals to push Flacco to start in Week 6 against the Packers.
