Higgins (quadricep) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
The limited listing is a bit of a surprise after head coach Zac Taylor said earlier Wednesday that Higgins would participate only in the walk-through portion of practice. Taylor also said the wideout has taken "steps in the right direction" toward a possible return this Sunday against the Chargers, after Higgins missed each of the past three games. The wideout will likely need to upgrade to full participation in practice by Friday for fantasy managers to feel good about his chances of playing Sunday and handling something close to a full snap load.
