Will Tee Higgins Play in Week 6? (2022 Fantasy Football)

Aside from a clunker in Week 1, Tee Higgins has been a solid fantasy WR2 for managers who drafted him. However, an ankle injury forced him to put up a zero in Week 5, and he has not practiced much leading up to Cincinnati’s Week 6 matchup against New Orleans. Can fantasy managers count on Higgins for Sunday? Or are they best left to scour the waiver wire yet again? This is what we know so far.

Tee Higgins deemed questionable for Week 6

According to ESPN’s Ben Baby, the Cincinnati Bengals have listed WR Tee Higgins as questionable for Week 6.

Fantasy Impact

Higgins didn’t record a single stat before leaving the game in Week 5 with an ankle injury. Higgins didn’t practice all week but was limited on Friday. His situation needs to be closely monitored as he has played injured all season and could be unpredictable on his status this Sunday. Without Higgins this season, though, the Bengals’ passing weapons have seemed to struggle.

What the Experts are Saying

Higgins tried to gut it out last week through a sprained ankle but was unable to. He has been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity on Friday. When Higgins has been fully healthy, he’s been amazing. He’s ninth in PFF receiving grade, 15th in yards per route run, and 18th in yards per reception (minimum ten targets). He’ll run about 81% of his routes against Roby and Adebo. Higgins is a risky WR2/3. If you have better or comparable options, I would look to them.
