2025 Fantasy Football Outlook
1. Explosive Scoring Potential
Tied for sixth in the NFL with 10 TDs on limited play; his size/role as Burrow’s intermediate target and red-zone threat keeps upside high
2. Elite Efficiency
24.9% target share, 75.9 yards/game, and 2.07 yards/route rank among top WRs, showing elite usage when active
3. Offensive Continuity
Long-term contract secured alongside Ja’Marr Chase, preserving the chemistry and offensive roles intact
Bengals produced one of the NFL’s most prolific passing attacks in 2024 (6th scoring, 1st in pass yards/game at 272.9)
Risk Factors
1. Health Concerns
Missed 5 games in 2024 due to hamstring strains; hamstring issues re‑arose late in the season
Over four years, has missed 14 games, with several times ending abbreviated season action
Headliner Take
Tee Higgins enters the 2025 season as a key piece of the Bengals’ high-volume passing attack, coming off a 2024 campaign where he recorded 73 receptions, 911 yards, and a career-high 10 touchdowns in just 12 games. His 24.9% target share, 2.07 yards per route run, and WR4 fantasy points per game pace highlight his strong efficiency and red-zone value when healthy. With a new long-term deal and continuity alongside Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase, Higgins remains a high-upside WR2 option for fantasy managers, though durability after missing five games in 2024 with hamstring issues remains the primary concern.
