Tee Higgins Eyeing 100-Catch Season, Could be Moved to the Slot
Tee Higgins enters the 2025 campaign with high expectations. For the past two offseasons, Higgins has been franchise tagged but was finally able to agree to a four-year $115 million contract with the team earlier in March. With his future now secure, Higgins can enter the regular season with a focused mindset. Jeremy Fowler of ESPN noted that the former 33rd overall pick said that "plan" is to catch 100 passes in the upcoming season. He also expressed how the Bengals are exploring other ways to get Higgins on the field, especially in the slot. Throughout his career, he has typically been deployed as a deep threat, but a move to the slot could provide him more opportunities to see targets. Despite only playing in 12 games last season, Higgins tallied 911 yards and found the back of the end zone 10 times. While he will continue to play as the No. 2 opposite of Ja'Marr Chase, given his nose for the end zone, Higgins should be viewed as a WR2 with upside in all fantasy formats this season.
