Bengals Hope Tee Higgins Can Return In Week 13
9 months agoCincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (hamstring), who injured his hamstring during practice on Nov. 8 and has missed the last three games, has a chance to play in Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. It's been a frustrating year for Higgins, who wasn't able to work out a long-term extension with the team before the start of the regular season. He then cracked a rib in Week 4 and missed Week 5. The 24-year-old had his first 100-yard game of the year in his last game in Week 9, and his return would be a big boost to an offense that will be without star quarterback Joe Burrow (wrist) for the rest of the year. However, Higgins' fantasy stock will also be down the rest of the way now that he'll be working with Jake Browning under center when he's back on the field. Higgins could be questionable for next Monday night's game against the Jags, which would make him even more risky for fantasy purposes.
