BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 9% of Yahoo Leagues
ANALYSIS: Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas has had a solid start to the 2024 season. The second-year receiver saw an uptick in snaps and targets, with Tee Higgins missing the first two games because of a hamstring injury.
The former Princeton star had five receptions on 10 targets for 33 receiving yards and two touchdowns over the first two weeks, averaging 8.9 half-point PPR fantasy points per game.
However, many believed he would fall out of favor with Higgins returning to the lineup in Week 3. Yet, that didn’t happen. Iosivas had his best performance this season, totaling five receptions on seven targets for 52 receiving yards and a touchdown, scoring 13.7 fantasy points against the Washington Commanders.

Furthermore, he tied Ja'Marr Chase for the team lead in targets. Higgins had six targets on Monday night, so the gap wasn’t significant. However, Iosivas is the Bengals’ new Tyler Boyd, meaning he will have a fantasy-relevant role this year.
Fantasy players should add him off the waiver as a bye-week replacement flex option. Iosivas also has handcuff appeal, especially with Higgins and Chase missing time last season because of injuries.
