Will Tee Higgins play this week? Injury updates for Bengals WR

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins has stepped into the injury limelight once again.

This time, it’s a knee injury for Higgins as his Bengals get ready to take on the Cleveland Browns in Week 16, so here’s a running list of updates before kickoff.

 

Tee Higgins injury update

  • Higgins was “limited” on the first injury report of the week, then a straight-up “DNP” on the second due to rest and a knee injury.
  • According to ESPN’s Ben Baby, Higgins is expected to play against the Browns and did side work during that listed “DNP” day.

How long will Tee Higgins be out?

  • Higgins will reportedly play against the Browns. But Bengals fans have been here before with him, multiple times this season alone. He had an injury come out of nowhere to cost him games early in the season, then had a different setback after suffering a soft-tissue injury during a Friday walkthrough that cost him multiple games.

Bengals depth chart

  • Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Andrei Iosivas, Jermaine Burton, Charlie Jones, Isaiah Williams

If Higgins suffers another setback or is limited on Sunday, some of the work could go to embattled rookie Jermaine Burton.
