• Bengals' Tee Higgins: Hauls in TD in return

  20H ago • By RotoWire

  Higgins caught all three of his targets for 53 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Dolphins. Making his return from another one-game absence due to a concussion, Higgins made an immediate impact by connecting with Joe Burrow on a nine-yard TD in the first quarter. He's had to sit out two of the last three weeks while in the concussion protocol, but Higgins had has a nose for the end zone this season whenever he's been in the lineup, finding paydirt in six of his last seven appearances and hauling in 10 touchdowns in total over 13 games in 2025. His next score will set a new career high, a mark he'll look to reach in Week 17 against the Cardinals.

• Bengals' Tee Higgins: Active versus Dolphins

  1D ago • By RotoWire

  Higgins (concussion) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Dolphins. Higgins, who was limited at practice Wednesday and Thursday, finished up the week with a full session Friday before approaching the contest listed as questionable. With the wideout having advanced through the NFL's concussion protocol, Higgins -- who was inactive in Week 15 -- is set to reclaim his key role in a Cincinnati passing attack helmed once again by QB Joe Burrow (making his fourth straight start since returning from a toe injury), which also features high-volume WR Ja'Marr Chase and RB Chase Brown. In 12 games played to date, Higgins has made his mark from a fantasy perspective by recording a 46/667/9 receiving line on 81 targets.

• Bengals' Tee Higgins: Clears protocol

  1D ago • By RotoWire

  Higgins remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Miami, but he's on track to play after clearing the five-step concussion protocol, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. After sitting out the Bengals' Week 15 loss to the Ravens due to the concussion -- his second of the season -- Higgins put himself on a path to return to action in Week 16 after he turned in a full practice Friday. Before the Bengals headed to Miami, Higgins made a brief trip to Pittsburgh to complete the final step of the protocol Saturday, when he received clearance from an independent neurologist. Higgins should be ready to handle his typical snap count Sunday.

• Bengals' Tee Higgins: Trending toward playing Sunday

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Higgins (concussion), who is officially questionable for Sunday's contest versus Miami, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Higgins missed last Sunday's loss to Baltimore due to a concussion he suffered in a Week 14 loss to the Bills. Though the concussion was his second of the season, he appears to have made good progress in his recovery after logging a full practice session Friday. Assuming Higgins has cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, he appears set to return to action against the Dolphins, which would be a big boost to a Cincinnati offense that was shut out last weekend.
