Ja'Marr Chase Active, Tee Higgins Inactive
3 years agoCincinnati Bengals rookie wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase is active for the Week 18 regular season finale against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, but fellow wideout Tee Higgins is a healthy scratch. Chase needs just 12 yards to set the franchise's single-season receiving yards record, which is probably the only reason why he's not inactive along with Higgins in this game. Chase has obviously had a phenomenal rookie season and has displayed excellent chemistry with quarterback Joe Burrow from their time together in college. Chase probably won't stay in the game for too long after the Bengals get him the record, so he's not a recommended fantasy play. Expect Tyler Boyd to come out early as well, which would leave Mike Thomas, Auden Tate, Stanley Morgan and Trenton Irwin vying for more playing time to close out the regular season.
