Tee Higgins

Really, the only statistical categories Tee has an edge in are Catch %(67.6% to 60.7%) and Yards/Game(79.2 to 77.5).  

Chase has the edge in Yards/Catch(17.1 to 14.5) and more importantly Yards/Target (10.4 to 9.8).  10 TD's for Chase compared to 6 for Tee is really the back breaker on the debate.  Some will argue that Tee played 3 fewer games on that, but Chase has only has 7 more targets on the year, so they are very close.

Some will argue Chase's drops, but those are already factored into Catch %(where Tee has the advantage) and Yards/Target(where Chase has the edge).  

Overall, both have been great on the season, so it's a good debate to have.

It's easy to say that catch percentage accounts for drops, and mathematically speaking, that is correct.  However, in a debate about one player being better than the other, critical drops count much more against a player than a ball off of the fingertips or a pass broken up by good coverage.

I'll give you an example.  During the Chargers game, when the Bengals had some momentum and were looking like they were going to get back into it, Chase has another lapse in focus that resulted in bumbling away what appeared to be a sure TD.  The best WR on a pro football team simply does not allow himself to keep having those fundamental lapses in focus.  Advantage - Higgins

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
