BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR53
ANALYSIS: Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas had a quiet rookie season. He averaged 2.7 half-point PPR fantasy points per game, totaling 15 receptions on 25 targets for 116 receiving yards and four touchdowns. However, the former Princeton star only played 207 offensive snaps over the first 17 weeks.
Iosivas finally got a chance to shine in Week 18. He had five receptions on seven targets for 36 receiving yards and two touchdowns against the Cincinnati Bengals. The second-year receiver is replacing Tyler Boyd in the slot this season.
However, Iosivas could have a larger role in Week 1, with Tee Higgins unlikely to play because of a hamstring injury and Ja'Marr Chase questionable after sitting out most of training camp.
The #Bengals list WR Tee Higgins (hamstring) as doubtful for Sunday's game. Meanwhile, WR Ja'Marr Chase (rest) is listed as questionable and OT Amarius Mims (pec) is out.

Unfortunately, Iosivas’ Week 1 matchup against the New England Patriots isn’t ideal for fantasy players. Yet, the second-year player is a solid WR3 in deeper leagues if Chase and Higgins miss the game. If Chase plays but Higgins is out, Iosivas is a desperation flex option.
