Josh Allen, Jahmyr Gibbs, Ja'Marr Chase, and Trey McBride lead the way in positional rankings for Week 16 of the 2024 NFL season.
The Bengals' passing offense primarily runs through Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, leaving just a few opportunities for Iosivas. He caught one of his four targets for five yards and should only be on the fantasy radar in deep leagues. Iosivas' path to opportunity opens up if Chase or Higgins were to miss time.
Despite not getting a touchdown grab, Chase was once again the No. 1 option for Joe Burrow in the passing game. His ability to create yards after the catch on slants and screens is a key part of the Bengals' offensive gameplan. Chase nearly had a score in the second quarter, but was tackled at the 2-yard line right before DE Sam Hubbard caught the score. Tee Higgins' utility in the offense should not impact Chase' fantasy output. He remains a top-three fantasy WR option the rest of the season.
Higgins was the No. 2 option in the passing game after Ja'Marr Chase against the Titans. He took the deeper targets from Joe Burrow, scoring on a 38-yard deep throw towards the end of the first half. The 25-year-old continues to make contested catches and act as a reliable big target on the perimeter. There are many questions surrounding Higgins' future with the Bengals, but for fantasy purposes, he is a high-end WR2 for Week 16 against the Browns.
Chase caught nine of 11 targets for 94 yards in Sunday's 37-27 win over the Titans.
