Tee Higgins Week 3 Outlook - Commanders at Bengals

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Fri, Sep 20th 2024, 9:05pm EDT

Higgins looks to be back this week. Last year, he dealt with hamstring issues, missing Weeks 10-12. When he returned in Week 13, he had a 64% route share, a 7.7% target share, a 24.8% air-yard share, 1.33 YPRR, and an 11.1% first-read share. Hopefully, Higgins will be healthier this time around because the matchup is glorious this week. Assuming Higgins is good to go, he should be in your lineups as a WR3. Washington's weak secondary has allowed the 11th-most receiving yards to perimeter wide receivers. Higgins will run about 82% of his routes against Benjamin St. Juste (61.1% catch rate and 118.8 passer rating), Noah Igbinoghene (33.3% catch rate and 42.4 passer rating), and Michael Davis (60% catch rate and 103.7 passer rating).
