Fantasy Football Outlook: Will Tee Higgins Play Week 8?
Tee Higgins: Pessimism regarding WR’s Week 8 status
There is reportedly pessimism regarding the status of Tee Higgins for Sunday’s game against the Eagles.
Fantasy Impact
Higgins injured his quad during Friday’s practice. The Bengals are planning to go right up until game time before deciding, but there’s pessimism about his chances to play. If he is sidelined, Andrei Iosivas would be on the streaming radar.

What the Experts Are Saying
It took Tee Higgins a while to get going following an injury that cost him the first two games of the season. Higgins finished outside the top 40 in his first two games back but has responded by ranking fourth among wide receivers in fantasy points across the last three weeks. Of course, one of the three receivers ahead of him is on his team (Ja”Marr Chase) but fantasy managers aren’t complaining. Higgins has a high probability of keeping managers happy in Week 8 versus the Philadelphia Eagles. Philadelphia has funneled fantasy production to wideouts and both offenses should put up points. All of this makes Tee Higgins an intriguing WR1 prospect this week.
