Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins has battled injuries throughout the majority of his career, but when on the field, the Clemson product produced at an elite level. Across 15 games last season, Higgins found the back of the end zone an impressive 11 times and brought in 59 of his 98 targets for 846 yards. This stat line made him the WR15 in total PPR scoring, despite missing time. During the 2024 campaign, Higgins was just as dominant, bringing 10 touchdowns and 911 yards on 73 receptions over just 12 games. However, while the 27-year-old has missed ample time in his career, his quarterback, Joe Burrow, is also no stranger to the injured reserve. Burrow played in just eight games last season and only 10 in 2023, with his 2024 season serving as his only full 17-game season since the early stages of his career. When Burrow is on the field, Higgins is able to produce as a low-end WR1 despite sharing the field with superstar Ja'Marr Chase, given the team's massive passing volume. Since the Bengals are often trailing in games and have a subpar defense (third-most PPG allowed in 2025, eighth-most PPG allowed in 2024), the offense is forced to push the ball downfield. In the offseason, the Bengals did not make many major additions on defense and even lost superstar edge rusher Trey Hendrickson. Even though Higgins is the WR2 to one of the best pass catchers in the game, the 27-year-old is well-positioned to provide great value at his current 32.0 Sleeper ADP (WR14) in PPR drafts as he could finish as a borderline top-12 WR if Burrow can stay on the field.less...
