BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR5
ANALYSIS: Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas could have a decent role if fellow WR Tee Higgins (quad) isn't able to play in Week 8, but in the two games Higgins missed to start the season, Iosivas had just five receptions for 33 yards. He did score touchdowns, but the low yardage alone makes it tough to trust him.
Andrei Iosivas once again with a great play out of structure. Love the fake as if he's going to run across the back of the end zone before sprinting to the front pylon. He's a savvy player when everything breaks down. pic.twitter.com/pc1qw8ipJp

He's not a bad player, but the second-year pro had one target and zero receptions last game, and he's seen a small decline in snaps over the past five weeks. He's still a risky start, even if Higgins can't play. He hadn't established enough of a role in the offense, even when he was the clear WR2 for the team behind lead receiver Ja'Marr Chase.
It's unclear how the offense will pivot in case the former Clemson Tiger can't play, but there's nothing indicating that Iosivas will get enough volume to be fantasy-relevant. He's fine as a speculative stash in deeper leagues or as a handcuff for Higgins owners.
UPDATE: Higgins has officially been ruled out, making Iosivas a decent flex option for fantasy managers in a pinch.
