Week 15 Wide Receiver Rankings Fantasy Football

Tier 2: Proven Solid WR2s

The players in this tier are all must-starts this week and will provide plenty of fantasy value throughout the season:

• Higgins returned from his injury, catching six of eleven targets for 92 yards and two touchdowns. Higgins has four top 15 finishes in the last six weeks. Expect another big game from him against the Ravens in Week 15.
• Williams had another productive day, catching seven receptions for 96 yards. He has scored at least 16 fantasy points in five of the last six games. He should reach that mark again against the Rams in what should be a high-scoring affair.

Tier 3: WR3s With Something to Prove

This tier of players includes wide receivers who are all borderline WR starts this week, depending on the size of your league:

• Wilson has three top ten finishes in the three games without Harrison Jr., including two WR1 finishes. However, the Cardinals have a tough matchup against the Texans. If Harrison were to miss, Wilson would only be a WR3 option. If Harrison does play, Wilson can not be started this week.
• The Vikings offense was much better in the win over the Commanders; however, Jefferson only caught two of four targets for eleven yards. The tight ends accounted for three touchdowns. I am giving Jefferson one more week, as the Vikings take on the Cowboys in what should be a shoot-out.

Tier 4: Potential Flex WRs

These guys are FLEX options to fill out your starting lineup:

• Watson had another strong performance, catching all four of his targets for 89 yards and two touchdowns. He now has five touchdowns in the last four games. However, without the touchdowns, he doesn’t have the target share to be a consistent wide receiver in fantasy. Therefore, he is a FLEX play in a tough matchup against the Broncos.
• All Colts skill players take a hit with the season-ending Achilles injury to Daniel Jones. With Riley Leonard or Philip Rivers taking over at quarterback against the Seahawks, I would avoid all Colts wide receivers, including Pittman and Pierce. Remember what the Seattle defense did to the rookie Max Brosmer a few weeks ago? This could be a very ugly game for the Colts offense.
