Tyler Boyd is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for wide receivers. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 6 of the 2023 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 47% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Tee Higgins (ribs) was inactive in Week 5. Trenton Irwin drew 10 targets to Tyler Boyd's seven in his absence. Simply put, that trend should not continue. Boyd should surpass Irwin as soon as this week. If Higgins is out again in Week 6 against the Seattle Seahawks, Boyd could be an immediate plug-and-play flex option.
The Seahawks have allowed the third-most fantasy points per game to wideouts this season, so Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati passing offense should flex its muscles for a second-straight week.
Boyd still has deep league value in this matchup even if Higgins returns, but if he doesn't, he's a viable WR3 or flex in 12-team leagues.
