Colbie Young Fantasy Stats

ESPN's Ben Baby writes that Cincinnati Bengals rookie fourth-round wide receiver Colbie Young stood out during minicamp this spring. "I think he's going to fight and battle," offensive coordinator Dan Pitcher said. "He's a young player, but there are things that I think he can do quickly and help us." The Bengals are looking to create more explosive plays on offense in 2026, and finding a consistent No. 3 receiver behind stars Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins could be a big part of that equation. Receiver Andrei Iosivas and tight end Mike Gesicki had productive spring workouts as well, but it appears that Young, a University of Georgia product, could be right in the thick of the WR3 competition this summer at training camp. Young has decent speed for his size (6-foot-5, 218 pounds), but he was never especially productive in college at Georgia and the University of Miami, finishing with 1,437 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns on 116 receptions over four seasons. Right now, Young should only be on the radar of fantasy managers in dynasty/keeper formats.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Colbie Young could find himself in a starting role to begin the season. According to ESPN, Young is competing for the No. 3 role with Andrei Iosivas. Bengals offensive coordinator Dan Pitcher said that he believes is going to fight and battle for that third wideout spot this summer. There's no way he can go any higher than that with Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins on the roster. The Bengals selected Young in the fourth-round out of Georgia during this year's draft. His stats don't jump off the page, but the Bengals like his potential. He could be an interesting late-round option in fantasy drafts if he wins the No. 3 receiver job.
