Tee Higgins
2025 Season Outlooks
If you draft Higgins, you are just hoping he stays healthy. He has missed 12 games over the last four seasons, but that is only part of the story as he has either left early or partially participated in several others. But when he's been healthy, he's mostly been a borderline WR1 for Fantasy purposes. His 9.2% TD rate from last year certainly signals regression but when you are catching passes from Joe Burrow and the defense has to account for Ja'Marr Chase, a high touchdown rate isn't exactly shocking. You should view Higgins as a borderline WR1 that you may need to replace for a few weeks in the middle of the season. That makes him worth a pick late in Round 2, and you should throw a party if you find him in Round 3.
Higgins signed an extension with the Bengals during the offseason and will return as Ja'Marr Chase's running mate. Higgins has struggled with injuries (he's missed action in four straight seasons), but he's been very impactful when healthy. In 12 games last season, Higgins posted career-high marks in TDs (10) and fantasy PPG (18.5), both of which ranked top 6 at the position. Higgins was a top-20 fantasy scorer in seven of his 12 active weeks. The 26-year-old may be the clear No. 2 behind Chase, but he also benefits from the league's pass-heaviest offense with an elite QB in Joe Burrow. Higgins is a good WR2 target.
Higgins scored the sixth-most fantasy points per game by a wide receiver last season, thanks to a higher routes per game than past seasons at 37.1, a higher target rate than usual at 23.1% without Tyler Boyd, and a career-high 10 touchdowns.
The Bengals ran a ridiculous 54 plays when they were within 3 yards of scoring. The only other team above 45 in the PFF era was the 2012 New England Patriots at 49. While Higgins scored a lot of touchdowns last season, that’s bound to regress.
Higgins has dealt with multiple injuries every season of his NFL career, including an average of one hamstring injury per year.
