ANDREI IOSIVAS NEWS

Two catches in win Iosivas brought in two of three targets for 12 yards in the Bengals' 19-17 win over the Steelers on Saturday night.

Impact Iosivas remained in a modest role despite the early exit of Tee Higgins due to an ankle injury, finishing with his second lowest reception total since Week 11 and his fewest receiving yards since Week 9. Iosivas did finish the regular season with a career-best 36-479-6 line on 61 targets, and if the Bengals do make the postseason by virtue of a Broncos loss and Dolphins loss or tie Sunday, Iosivas could be due for a bump in opportunity in the wild-card round if Higgins is sidelined.

Three receptions in win Iosivas reeled in three of four targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Broncos.

Impact Iosivas caught three passes for the second straight week, though he wasn't able to find the end zone against as he did in Week 16 against Cleveland. The 25-year-old wideout played 79 percent of the Bengals' offensive snaps, behind Ja'Marr Chase and ahead of Tee Higgins, who had snap percentages of 88 and 69 percent, respectively. Iosivas' four targets were well behind Chase (15), Higgins (12) and tight end Mike Gesicki (12). The Princeton product should continue to be an ancillary piece of the Bengals' passing attack, capping his potential for consistent fantasy production. Iosivas is best ignored for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 18 matchup against the Steelers.

Makes good use of three catches Iosivas brought in all three targets for 53 yards and a touchdown in the Bengals' 24-6 win over the Browns on Sunday.

Impact Iosivas came down with one of Joe Burrow's touchdown passes, making a six-yard grab just before the midway point of the second quarter to put Cincinnati up by two scores. Iosivas' yardage total was a new career-high figure as well, and he's now posted at least three receptions in four of the last five games. Iosivas will remain a deep-league option in a Week 17 home matchup against the Broncos on Saturday afternoon thanks to Burrow's talent and the Bengals' pass-centric approach.

One grab in win Iosivas secured one of his four targets for five yards in Sunday's 37-27 win over the Titans.

Impact Iosivas' five receiving yards Sunday accounted for his lowest total in a game in which he recorded at least one catch. The second-year wideout played 87 percent of the Bengals' offensive snaps against the Titans, accounting for his highest snap share over the past five contests. Despite the increased playing time, Iosivas had a quiet day on the field, while fellow wideouts Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins remained the focal points of Cincinnati's aerial attack. Fully entrenched as the Bengals' No. 3 wide receiver, the Princeton product should not be trusted for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 16 matchup against the Browns.

Four catches in Week 14 win Iosivas played 48 of the Bengals' 71 snaps on offense and recorded four receptions for 41 yards on five targets in Monday's 27-20 win over the Cowboys.

Impact While Iosivas outproduced No. 2 wideout Tee Higgins (2-23-0 receiving line on five targets), both players took back seats in the passing game to Ja'Marr Chase (7-87-1 on 10 targets) and Chase Brown (4-43-1 on six targets). Brown's passing-game role may be more volatile from week to week, but Chase is the Bengals' clear No. 1 option, and Higgins' poor showing in Week 14 looks to be more of an outlier performance. Even in a prolific passing attack, Iosivas doesn't look like he'll be able to carve out consistent enough volume to make for an appealing fantasy option in any given week.

DECEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Hits pay dirt against Steelers Iosivas caught three of four targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-38 loss to the Steelers.

Impact Iosivas' touchdown in Week 13 was his fifth of the 2024 campaign, and the Bengals' No. 3 wideout has now recored 23 catches for 309 yards in the 12 games he's played this season. The second-year receiver found the end zone on a three-yard pass from Joe Burrow late in the fourth quarter to bring Cincinnati within one score, but ultimately the Bengals were not unable to get the job done. Iosivas remains difficult to trust for fantasy purposes with such limited volume behind fellow receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. The Bengals visit the Cowboys in Week 14.

DECEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Reels in three passes Iosivas caught all three of his targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.

Impact Iosivas saw his playing time take a hit Sunday with the return of Tee Higgins to the lineup, but the second-year wideout recorded his highest yardage total since Week 3. Though Iosivas has shown flashes this season, his role as the No. 3 wide receiver with both Ja'Marr Chase and Higgins healthy will limit his potential for consistent fantasy production. The Princeton product would be best left out of fantasy lineups when the Bengals return from their Week 12 bye to face the Steelers in Week 13.

NOVEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Nabs pair of catches Thursday Iosivas recorded two catches on four targets for 29 yards Thursday in a Week 10 loss to the Ravens.

Impact Iosivas logged the second-most catches and yards among Cincinnati wideouts in the contest, though his production was nearly unnoticeable compared to Ja'Marr Chase's huge 11-catch, 264-yard, three-touchdown performance. It's also worth noting that two tight ends (Tanner Hudson and Mike Gesicki) registered more targets, catches and yards than Iosivas, as did running back Chase Brown. Iosivas has served as the Bengals' No. 2 wideout over the past three weeks while Tee Higgins has been sidelined due to a quad injury, but Iosivas hasn't done much with the opportunity, totaling just three catches for 39 yards and a touchdown over the three-game span.

NOVEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Finds end zone on one catch Iosivas brought in his only target for a 10-yard touchdown in the Bengals' 41-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

Impact The second-year wideout recorded his fourth touchdown reception of the season on a 10-yard catch late in the second quarter. Iosivas was starting a second consecutive game with Tee Higgins (quadricep) sidelined, but Sunday's scoring grab was his first reception on a modest five targets in the last three games. Therefore, even if Higgins remains sidelined for a Week 10 road matchup against the Ravens on Thursday night, Iosivas will remain a speculative fantasy option due to his minimal role.

NOVEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Shut out by Eagles Iosivas was held catchless in Sunday's Week 8 loss to the Eagles despite playing 51 snaps. He was targeted three times.

Impact Iosivas just doesn't get open very often, and that really hurt the Bengals this week with Tee Higgins (quad) out against the Eagles. Instead, the Bengals went more often to tight end Mike Gesicki, who often was lined up in the slot. Even Jermaine Burton chipped in with a big reception in limited reps, but Iosivas couldn't contribute.

OCTOBER 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Shutout by Browns Iosivas was held without a catch on one target despite playing 37 offensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Browns.

Impact Iosivas wasn't able to gain much separation on his routes, but he also was dragged down by the Bengals' offensive struggles in the first half, and their decision to run the ball nearly exclusively late in the game after they moved up to a two-score lead.

Shut out by Browns Iosivas was held without a catch on one target despite playing 37 offensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Browns.

Impact Iosivas wasn't able to gain much separation on his routes, but he also was dragged down by the Bengals' offensive struggles in the first half, and their decision to run the ball nearly exclusively late in the game after they took a two-score lead. Iosivas remains firmly behind Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins in the passing-game pecking order, but he continues to work ahead of rookie Jermaine Burton, who hasn't seen a target since Week 2.

OCTOBER 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Two grabs in win Iosivas caught two of three targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 17-7 win over the Giants.

Impact Iosivas continued to operate as the Bengals' No. 3. wideout behind Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. As long as Chase and Higgins are healthy, the 25-year-old Iosivas should continue to see limited targets in Cincinnati's passing attack. Nonetheless, he'll look to get more involved in Week 7 when the Bengals visit the Browns.

OCTOBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

One catch in loss Iosivas caught one of his two targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 41-38 loss to the Ravens.

Impact Iosivas recorded just one reception for the second-straight week, as the wideout continues to be less involved in the Bengals offense with teammate Tee Higgins healthy. The 24-year-old played 53 of the Bengals' 67 offensive snaps behind Ja'Marr Chase (59) and ahead of Higgins (48). With Chase and Higgins dominating the target share, Iosivas is extremely difficult to trust for consistent fantasy production. The Bengals will square off against the Giants in Week 6.

OCTOBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

One catch in loss Iosivas caught one of his two targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 41-38 overtime loss to the Ravens.

Impact Iosivas was limited to just one reception for a second straight game, as the wideout continues to be less involved in the Bengals offense with teammate Tee Higgins healthy. The 24-year-old still played 53 of the Bengals' 67 offensive snaps Week 5, behind Ja'Marr Chase (59) but ahead of Higgins (48). With Chase and Higgins dominating the target share, however, Iosivas is difficult to trust for consistent fantasy production.

OCTOBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

One grab against Panthers Iosivas secured his lone target for 29 yards in Sunday's 34-24 win over the Panthers.

Impact Iosivas' one catch and one target were both season-lows for the second-year wideout. Meanwhile both Tee Higgins and Ja'Marr Chase dominated the target share Sunday with 10 and six targets, respectively. Though the 24-year-old Iosivas will have opportunities for solid performances in the Bengals offense, his role as the No. 3 receiver behind Chase and Higgins limits his potential for consistent production. Iosivas will look to get more involved in Week 5 when the Bengals host the Ravens.

OCTOBER 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Finds end zone against Commanders Iosivas secured five of seven targets for 52 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 38-33 loss to the Commanders.

Impact Iosivas played a healthy 77 percent of the Bengals' offensive snaps Monday while also matching Ja'Marr Chase with a team-high seven targets in the contest. The 24-year-old Iosivas remained involved in the Bengals offense even with the return of Tee Higgins from injury. Even with a healthy set of pass catchers, Iosivas may have earned himself a solid role as the No. 3 wideout going forward. He'll look to continue his touchdown streak in Week 4 when the Bengals visit the Panthers.

Scores on both receptions Sunday Iosivas scored a pair of short touchdowns and gained seven yards off of two receptions (four targets) in Sunday's 26-25 loss to Kansas City.

Impact Iosivas was used primarily as a finisher on both of Joe Burrow's touchdown drives in Sunday's narrow loss. The sophomore wideout continues to absorb Tee Higgins' (hamstring) targets while the starter mends on the sidelines. If the latter is still inactive for next Monday's tilt against Washington, then Iosivas would generate deep-league appeal in Week 3.

Limited to three catches Sunday Iosivas brought in three of six targets for 26 yards in the Bengals' 16-10 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

Impact The second-year wideout finished tied for first in targets and for second in receptions while also qualifying as the runner-up in receiving yards, but that overstates his overall production significantly. The entire Bengals' air attack was stuck in neutral for the most part against a surprisingly effective Patriots defense, and even the absence of Tee Higgins (hamstring) couldn't clear a path for a stronger performance for Iosivas, who' could be similarly challenged to offer useful fantasy production in a Week 2 visit to the Chiefs next Sunday.
