In a Week 1 matchup analysis between Tee Higgins (vs. Tampa Bay) and A'Mecca Buka (vs. Cincinnati), the source leans toward Higgins due to Tampa Bay's secondary losses. The source states 'it's probably T in this situation just because Tampa Bay has lost a decent amount. Obviously Jamel Dean is gone. It's Zion McCollum and Ben Morrison at corner now. So T is more experienced.' However, the source notes this is a close call given Cincinnati's defensive struggles.

Tee Higgins is one of two wide receivers who would benefit from increased play-action opportunities in the Bengals offense. The source notes Higgins would be excellent on play-action routes and could see more deep shots if the Bengals successfully implement their offensive coordinator's plan to increase under-center and play-action usage, potentially returning to the single-high safety looks that existed when the receivers entered the league.

Higgins averages 90.3 yards receiving per game without Ja'Marr Chase but only 63.4 yards with him, and has missed 16 games over the past five years. He has never exceeded 110 targets or 1,091 yards in a season. The source expects a typical season around 900 yards and nine TDs—close to the 1,000-10 benchmark but unsexy. Higgins would need Chase to miss at least half the season while staying healthy himself to crush his ADP, an unlikely parlay.
