Bengals WR Tee Higgins (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game vs. the Chiefs after missing practice all week. He’s not going to play. That should again leave WR Andrei Iosivas in a full-time role. He ran a route on 100% of pass plays in the opener, finishing with three catches on six targets (21% share) for 26 yards. That level of usage has him on the WR4 radar for Week 2.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins was not practicing on Wednesday due to his hamstring injury. Higgins missed Week 1, and his hamstring issue appears to be stopping him from practicing today. This is a poor start for Higgins, and he probably misses Week 2.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins (hamstring) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Patriots. He was added to the injury report on Thursday and then did not practice on Friday. We’ll see if Higgins can make it back for Week 2. We’re projecting WR Trenton Irwin – not WR Jermaine Burton – to replace most of Higgins’ outside snaps. WR Andrei Iosivas and TE Mike Gesicki could also see target boosts.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins is listed as "Doubtful" for Week 1 after suffering a hamstring injury on Thursday in practice. He practiced in a limited capacity on Thursday and did not practice on Friday. A Doubtful tag means Higgins is assuredly out of the game against the Patriots.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins was added to the injury report on Thursday with a hamstring and limited in practice. The season couldn't officially start without Higgins hitting the injury report. He said afterward that he feels "amazing" and fully expects to play this weekend, but we'll see how he's listed on the final injury report on Friday afternoon. The Bengals are expected to have WR Ja'Marr Chase for Sunday's opener vs. the Patriots, although it's still unclear if he'll be ready for a full workload. The rest of the WR corps is rounded out by Andrei Iosivas, Trenton Irwin, Charlie Jones, and Jermaine Burton.
Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase has yet to practice with his team since the start of training camp. Tuesday presented a new step, though, as the WR didn't even attend practice, according to ESPN's Ben Baby. Baby says that Chase "had remained visible and involved during drills" before Tuesday.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins has been "unstoppable" in training camp, Pro Football Network's Jay Morrison writes. "The offense has run through him," Morrison adds.
The Bengals have been easing WR Tee Higgins into practice so far in training camp, after his pursuit of a long-term contract kept him away from spring workouts. The team also is going without WR Ja'Marr Chase, who's in camp but not practicing as he seeks an extension. That has left opportunities for other wideouts, and second-year WR Andrei Iosivas has impressed, according to Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic.
Bengals QB Joe Burrow (wrist) has been fully cleared for the start of training camp, HC Zac Taylor said Monday. Burrow's 2023 season ended in November with an injury to his right, throwing wrist that required surgery. He resumed throwing early this year and participated in May's OTAs.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins signed his franchise tag. He'll make $21.8 million on the one-year contract. Looking for a long-term deal, Higgins requested a trade multiple times this offseason and skipped last week's mandatory minicamp. But this should be the last we hear of his contract situation this year. Higgins will hit free agency next offseason.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins was not present for the start of minicamp on Tuesday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Higgins has still not signed his franchise tag and requested a trade (again) in late April.
Bengals QB Joe Burrow was on the field and throwing as OTAs opened on Monday, according to the team's official site. Burrow resumed throwing earlier this offseason after undergoing right wrist surgery in late November, but this was the first time he did it in a team setting. He looked very close to 100% by all accounts, throwing with his usual velocity.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins has requested a trade, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. This story has flipped back and forth this offseason, with Schefter reporting back in March that Higgins wanted out and then Higgins saying earlier this month that he expected to remain in Cincinnati. According to Schefter, there have been no contract talks between Higgins and the Bengals "in over a year." If a trade is gonna go down, it'll likely happen on night 1 or 2 of the draft. Stay tuned.
WR Tee Higgins said Monday that he expects to remain with the Bengals for the 2024 campaign. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported back in March that Higgins requested a trade after getting the franchise tag, but he's evidently backed off those demands. We'll see if there's any movement during the draft later this month, but the most likely scenario has Higgins playing in Cincinnati for at least one more year. He dealt with numerous injuries last season, playing more than two-thirds of the offensive snaps in just nine games. But he averaged 66 yards and 0.6 TDs across those nine games -- after finishing as a top-14 WR in PPR points per game in both 2021 and 2022. Higgins is an easy bounce-back candidate this season.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins has requested a trade, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Cincinnati used its franchise tag to keep Higgins for 2024, but Higgins is reportedly disappointed that the team hasn't made an effort to sign him to a long-term deal. We'll see how interested the Bengals are in meeting Higgins' demand. There'd be no shortage of trade interest in the 25-year-old if he becomes available. This could also result in a Higgins holdout if the Bengals choose not to trade him. We'll keep you updated on the situation, but Higgins carries elevated risk in fantasy drafts until it's resolved.
