Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is once again one of the main injury talking points around the team.
This time, Higgins is in the spotlight ahead of the team’s Week 13 AFC North battle with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Tee Higgins injury update
- Higgins was officially “limited” on the first injury report of the week, with the team listing it as a “rest” status. But he was one of the only players working the rehab field on Wednesday.
- Speaking with reporters on Wednesday before Week 13, Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that there wasn’t any concern about Higgins’ availability for Week 13.
How long will Tee Higgins be out?
- Higgins should play against the Steelers. That said, Bengals fans know to be cautious — his latest stint of missed games was due to an injury suffered during a Friday walkthrough, his second different soft-tissue injury of the year.
Bengals depth chart
- Ja’Marr Chase, Andrei Iosivas, Trenton Irwin, Jermaine Burton, Charlie Jones, Isaiah Williams
