Jake Browning49.531.9351.52.331.298.124.30.2424.67

Joe Burrow: Burrow battled a calf strain during the early part of the season, and his performance suffered as a result (182 YPG with only two total touchdowns through four games). While he got into a groove after that point (4-1 record, 296 passing YPG, 12-to-four TD-INT ratio in his next five games), Burrow was lost for the season to a hand/wrist injury sustained in Week 11. Burrow says he'll "be ready to go by the season" even though he won't put a percentage on where he is health wise. The Bengals arguably have the league's best receiver tandem with Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins.

Chris Evans18.378.70.3211.3850.728.14

Zack Moss: Moss is one of free agency's biggest winners this offseason with Joe Mixon now in Houston. While he'll share the workload with Chase Brown, Moss has shown an ability to handle a heavy workload and he should get the larger share of touches in Cincinnati's committee backfield. Given the high-powered nature of their offense (when everyone is healthy), Moss is a high-upside flex option heading into 2024.

WIDE RECEIVERS

PlayerRec.YardsTDRushYardsTDPoints
Ja'Marr Chase99.31275.18.7390.03230.44
Tee Higgins76.71056.97.1000186.64
Jermaine Burton34402.12.800074.01

Charlie Jones8.287.30.7160.0417.87
Trenton Irwin7.694.20.700017.42

Ja'Marr Chase: Although he's the WR3 in my rankings, a case could be made for Chase to be drafted as the WR1 this summer. Injuries have slowed him and/or Joe Burrow over the past two seasons, but the 24-year-old receiver already has 268/3,717/29 through 45 career games.

Tee Higgins: With both Higgins and Joe Burrow missing considerable time and dealing with injuries, 2023 was a year to forget. Before that, however, Higgins had back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons (and top-24 finishes) as the team's 1B to Ja'Marr Chase's 1A. Going into his age-25 season, it appears unlikely that Higgins will sign a long-term extension, but it's good news that he has signed his franchise tender.

Drew Sample16.3158.51.100030.6
Erick All Jr.10.1101.10.800019.96

Mike Gesicki: Gesicki has underwhelmed the past couple of seasons — 32/362/5 and 29/244/2, respectively. While fantasy managers shouldn't expect a 112-target (and 73/780/2) season like in 2021, there is potential that Gesicki outperforms current expectations and ADP as the third option in Cincinnati's passing game. Outside of deep leagues, however, the athletic tight end shouldn't be drafted.

Jake Browning38.824.6273.51.360.873.26.40.0615.64

Joe Burrow: Does any team have as talented of a trio as the Bengals do with Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd? Burrow's rookie season (2020) ended prematurely after sustaining a torn ACL, but he has a 69.3% completion rate, 69 touchdowns (6.1 TD%) and 8.1 yards per attempt average over the past two years. Returning to practice after missing roughly a month, Burrow (calf strain) is on track to play Week 1 against the Cleveland Browns.

Chase Brown34.5146.60.99.364.60.534.17

Joe Mixon: Missing multiple games in all but two seasons (2019 and 2021), Mixon has been an inefficient (career 4.1 YPC) workhorse (16.4 carries per game). In addition, he set career highs as a receiver in targets (75), receptions (60) and yards (441) in 2022.

WIDE RECEIVERS

Trenton Irwin9.7115.90.90.94.50.0522.59
Andrei Iosivas2.4290.20005.3

Ja'Marr Chase: Chase missed five games in 2022, but in some ways, his numbers were even better in his second season. Chase averaged a 7.3/87.2/0.75 line and fell short of 50 receiving yards in only one of 12 games last season. As a rookie, he averaged 4.8/85.6/0.77 per game, but he failed to reach 50 receiving yards in six games in his debut season. Assuming that Chase stays healthy, bigger and better things should be expected in his age-23 season.

Tee Higgins: Other than perhaps the Dolphins with Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle or the Eagles with A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, no team has a better WR duo than the Bengals have with Chase and Higgins. As he enters his age-24 season, the former Clemson Tiger already has three years of consistent production with a total of 215 catches for 3,028 yards and 19 touchdowns. Higgins has a minimum of three catches in 38 of the 41 games in which he played at least 50% of the offensive snaps.

Tyler Boyd: Boyd set five-year lows in targets (82), receptions (58) and yards (762) in 2022. Even so, he has extended his streak of top-36 seasons (half-PPR scoring) to five. He's a relatively low-upside flex option, other than weeks where either Chase or Higgins is sidelined.

Drew Sample9.191.40.800018.49
Mitchell Wilcox4.344.60.40009.01

Irv Smith Jr.: Smith has appeared in only eight (23.5%) of 34 games over the past two seasons. With Hayden Hurst now in Carolina, Smith slots in atop Cincinnati's depth chart. Hurst had 52/414/2 receiving in 13 games last season, and Jets tight end C.J. Uzomah had 49/493/5 for Cincinnati in 2021. Provided his health cooperates, Smith has a chance to at least post similar numbers to Hurst and Ozumah over the past two seasons.

Burrow's rookie season (2020) ended prematurely after sustaining a torn ACL, but he has a 69.3% completion rate, 69 touchdowns (6.1 TD%) and 8.1 yards per attempt average over the past two years. It's unlikely for the Bengals to play Burrow in the preseason as he recovers from a strained calf, but NFL Network's Mike Garafolo notes that "it doesn't sound as if Week 1 is in jeopardy right now."

Joe Mixon: Missing multiple games in all but two seasons (2019 and 2021), Mixon has been an inefficient (career 4.1 YPC) workhorse (16.4 carries per game). In addition, he set career highs as a receiver in targets (75), receptions (60) and yards (441) in 2022. The Bengals and Mixon agreed to a restructured contract that keeps him in Cincinnati for 2023, but it's still unclear if his legal issues will impact his availability at any point during the season.

In addition, he set career highs as a receiver in targets (75), receptions (60) and yards (441) in 2022.
