Bengals WR Tee Higgins is out against the Baltimore Ravens (8:20 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock) due to a concussion suffered in last week’s 26-20 loss to the New England Patriots. Because of that, there may be a chance for WR Ja’Marr Chase’s stats to jump off the page once again.

Chase has put up over 450 yards combined in his past two games against the Ravens, and with QB Joe Burrow finally back from his early-season toe injury, Chase has every reason to be thrilled. He produced good results with QB Joe Flacco, including three games of over 100 yards, but Burrow may offer an even higher ceiling for him.

With that in mind, let's check out key stats, a pick, and PrizePicks projections for Ja’Marr Chase on Thanksgiving.

Ja’Marr Chase Stats, Pick for Thanksgiving Night vs. Ravens

Chase has understandably been hyper-targeted this season. Flacco threw Chase an average of nearly 14 targets per game over the last six outings, and the stud WR turned that into 597 receiving yards.

There may be some added motivation for the Bengals’ best WR tonight. Chase was suspended for one game after he spat at Steelers CB Jalen Ramsey two weeks ago, leading to a fight between the two stars. After serving his suspension, Chase was contrite but also noted that he is determined to get back on the wagon.

Below are some of the top Ja'Marr Chase Week 13 projections, courtesy of the PrizePicks NFL board.

Bengals WR Ja’Marr Chase Projection vs. Ravens: 91.5 Receiving Yards

There’s not much more anyone can say about Chase at this point. With Burrow present, he has consistently been a top-flight receiver throughout his career.

Ravens S Kyle Hamilton, who is dealing with shoulder/groin injuries, practiced in a limited fashion all week. His status is key to Chase’s matchup. Ravens HC John Harbaugh noted that Chase deserves double coverage as one of the top WRs in the league, and Hamilton is a player that any team would love to put over the top.

Despite that, Chase has gone for 94+ yards in five of his 10 games this season. A 91-yards showing in Week 8 brought him close. He clearly brings the goods for games against the Ravens and might receive extra targets with Higgins sidelined.

Dating back to Week 5, Chase averages 99.5 receiving yards per game. His fourth-ranked target share (32.87%) and Baltimore's poor pass defense (21st in EPA/play, per SumerSports) could come in handy on Thanksgiving.
