Bengals' Tee Higgins: Huge receiving night in return
Tee Higgins (quadricep) racked up nine receptions (on 13 targets) for 148 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.Higgins returned from injury in style after gaining a season-best 148 receiving yards while scoring his fourth touchdown in six games this year. Both he and Ja'Marr Chase (7-75-2) commanded 13 targets apiece, with both producing WR1 fantasy lines in the wideouts' first game together since Week 7. With a dominant game under his belt and an extra week of rest ahead, Higgins should be a full-go when the Cincinnati Bengals return from the bye to face Pittsburgh on Dec. 1.

Bengals' Tee Higgins: Cleared to face Chargers
Tee Higgins (quadricep) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday night's game against the Chargers, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.Higgins, who last saw game action Week 7, was limited at practice this week, but after head coach Zac Taylor noted Friday that he expected the wideout to play this weekend, the team's final injury report cemented that outcome. Prior to sustaining his quad injury, Higgins had recorded a 29-341-3 line on 45 targets through five games, and in his looming return Higgins is poised to reclaim his key role in the Cincinnati Bengals passing offense while working alongside fellow starting wideout Ja'Marr Chase, a context that puts him back on the fantasy lineup radar Week 11.

Bengals' Tee Higgins: Listed as limited participant
Tee 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.

Bengals' Tee Higgins: Doubtful for Thursday
Tee Higgins (quadricep) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Ravens.Higgins, who missed the Cincinnati Bengals' last two games, is thus trending toward a third straight absence, with his Week 10 status to be officially confirmed when Cincinnati posts its inactive list 90 minutes prior to Thursday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Bengals' Tee Higgins: Sidelined for another practice
Tee Higgins (quadricep) is listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.Higgins has yet to log any reps since injuring his quad in an Oct. 25 practice, and he appears to be trending toward missing a third straight game Thursday in Baltimore. The Cincinnati Bengals will see if Higgins is able to do anything Wednesday in what will likely be a light walk-through session before determining his availability for the Week 10 contest. Tight end Mike Gesicki has been the main beneficiary of Higgins' absence in the last two games as well as in Weeks 1 and 2, when the receiver was sidelined with a hamstring injury. In those four contests, Gesicki has produced a 22-282-2 receiving line on 27 targets.
