Outlook Makai Lemon
Makai Lemon in Line for Expanded Slot Work in London
With top receiver DeVonta Smith sidelined by a hamstring injury, Lemon steps into an elevated role as Philadelphia's primary slot receiver for their London clash with Jacksonville. The rookie has seen his opportunities climb steadily, drawing 10 targets over his last two games while showing reliable route running and growing trust behind the scenes. Even with offensive line injuries mounting, Philadelphia will need quick outlets, keeping Lemon firmly involved in the game plan.
Our weekly projection tabs Lemon for 3.5 receptions and roughly 39 yards on 5.5 targets (8.6 fantasy points). While currently started in just 12% of leagues, his recent target share bump makes him an intriguing streaming option and viable deep-league flex play in PPR formats. He carries modest touchdown equity, but his active involvement provides a stable PPR floor.

Outlook Tee Higgins
Tee Higgins at Miami — High-Upside WR2 Carries Injury Tag into Week 5
Higgins enters Week 5 questionable with groin and neck ailments after managing limited practice reps late in the week. Operating as Cincinnati's premier perimeter co-star alongside Ja'Marr Chase, Higgins commands elite volume when healthy—evidenced by his explosive 11-catch, 157-yard outing on 16 targets in Week 4. Fantasy managers must check back before kickoff to ensure he is active.
If suited up, Higgins holds strong upside against a winless Dolphins squad as seven-point road favorites. Our models project him for roughly 4.5 receptions and 69 receiving yards. With start rates declining to 57% due to uncertainty, he profiles as a high-reward Flex or WR2 option if active.
