Week 11 is on tap in fantasy football, and the regular season is rounding a corner that could be defining. With another win, some managers will clinch their playoff spot. Some already have. However, from the desperate to the euphoric, most managers will be taking at least a passive glance at the waiver wire.

#4 - Jayden Higgins, Houston Texans (17.1% rostered)

The rookie receiver has seen his stock rise amid a run of touchdowns in two of his last three games. If you want a young receiver potentially on the rise, you could do worse than Higgins. C.J. Stroud's health remains in question as he battles a concussion suffered against the Denver Broncos, but Higgins has popped with Stroud and backup Davis Mills.

Stroud could play in Week 11, based on the optimistic update provided by Stroud's mother via Click 2 Houston, which only raises Higgins' stock.

#3 - Jalen Nailor, Minnesota Vikings (0.5% rostered)

Jalen Nailor was a receiver to be avoided heading into Week 10. Heading into Week 11, it's an entirely different story. However, it remains to be seen if Nailor was a one-week wonder or at the start of an impressive run.

He's most likely worth an addition to your fantasy football team to find out, as he tallied five catches for 124 yards and a touchdown against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 10.

#2 - Parker Washington, Jacksonville Jaguars (16.9% rostered)

Parker Washington has seen his stock rise significantly in the last few weeks. Washington has had something to smile about in each of his last three games, whether it was ten targets on Oct. 19, 90 yards one game later on Nov. 2, or the touchdown on Sunday.

Managers can't do much better than Washington if they need a receiver to help get through a bye week in the next two weeks.

#1 - Tez Johnson, Tampa Bay Buccaneers (27.9% rostered)

Tez Johnson has been electric in fantasy football at a level rivaling many starting wide receivers. Johnson has logged four touchdowns since Oct. 12 and hauled in a pair of them on Sunday against the New England Patriots.

Johnson and Baker Mayfield have a clear connection, and fantasy football managers can profit from it. Johnson is likely to see some competition from other managers thanks to his big game, but it will be worth putting in a claim as soon as possible.
