(This story has been updated to add new information)

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins continues to fight through multiple injuries, this time ahead of the season finale, against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 18.

Like last week, Higgins projects to be out there in the cold with the season and playoff hopes on the line.

Here’s the latest.

 

Tee Higgins injury update

  • Update: Higgins was active for the game.
  • Higgins finished the week on the final injury report as “questionable” after going limited in practice all week.

 

How long will Tee Higgins be out?

A week ago, Higgins had a similar journey before leading the team in receiving with 11 catches for 131 yards and three scores, including the game-winner. Barring something unexpected, he shouldn’t even be on a pitch count as he manages the ankle and knee injuries.

 

Bengals WR depth chart

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

Andrei Iosivas is the next man up in the offense. Rookie Jermaine Burton might’ve had a chance, but he wasn’t permitted to travel with the team for an unknown reason.
