BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 49% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd has taken a backseat to Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins in 2023 and hasn't been a consistent fantasy option. Whenever Higgins or Chase is out, however, Boyd has stepped up to the occasion and been a solid fill-in.
Chase has been diagnosed with an AC sprain, but there is some concern that he could miss some time due to the injury. If that's the case, Boyd would walk into a much more prominent role in the Bengals' offense. Boyd has seven games with seven targets or more. Some of that has been due to an earlier injury to Higgins, but if Chase is out, Boyd's role would be similar to earlier this season.
Despite the ample volume, he has just three games with more than nine half-PPR points. The Bengals play Pittsburgh in Week 16, who is allowing the 13th-most points to receivers. Higgins likely has a date with Joey Porter Jr., but Boyd could find himself with a much more fantasy-friendly matchup. He's a better option in PPR leagues but should be viewed as a mid-WR3 if Chase is out. If he's active, Boyd can be completely ignored.
