Outlook Malik Willis

Malik Willis faces uphill battle as heavy road underdog in San Francisco

Malik Willis is completely clear of injury designations after practicing in full despite a minor toe issue earlier in the week. Coming off a 220-yard passing debut that included 39 rushing yards and a touchdown against the Raiders, he leads Miami into Santa Clara against a stifling 49ers defense.

While his rushing ability offers a baseline, a matchup as heavy underdogs on the road severely caps his passing efficiency. Our projections forecast roughly 142 passing yards, 27 rushing yards, and 13.4 fantasy points, leaving Willis as a low-end superflex option who should remain benched in standard leagues.

Outlook Tee Higgins

Tee Higgins at Houston — Primed for High-Impact Targets in Week 2

Fresh off a 59-yard opener where he showed off his trademark leaping ability in high-leverage moments, Higgins enters Week 2 fully past the preseason heel issue that briefly slowed him down. Starting on the outside opposite Ja'Marr Chase, Higgins remains an indispensable weapon in Cincinnati's passing attack, especially with Joe Burrow practicing in full despite a back tag.

Our weekly projection slots Higgins for approximately 4 receptions on 7 targets and 69 receiving yards against the Texans. Started in 84% of fantasy leagues, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats as an upside WR2 in Houston's controlled dome environment.
