NFL Injury Report: Tee Higgins’ Ankle Injury Raises Concerns for Bengals

The Cincinnati Bengals are facing anxiety over a recent injury to wide receiver Tee Higgins, as he suffered an ankle injury during practice. The injury occurred on Friday, after Higgins reportedly had been taking part in drills at full speed, a promising sign for his recovery. Bengals head coach Zac Taylor commented on the situation, stating, “We’re hopeful for Tee, but we’ll have to see how he responds in the coming days.” Higgins, who played a key role in the team’s offense this season, has recorded 74 receptions for 1,032 yards and 6 touchdowns. The injury puts additional pressure on the Bengals as they prepare for their upcoming game against the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens are currently contending for a playoff spot and any absence of Higgins could significantly impact the Bengals’ game plan. Coach Taylor noted the need for depth in the wide receiver position, emphasizing the team’s preparedness to fill any potential gaps in Higgins’ absence. Meanwhile, NFL teams across the league are making updates to their rosters and adjusting strategies ahead of Week 18, as teams like the New York Giants and Chicago Bears also made headlines in recent injury reports. As the playoff picture becomes clearer, teams are hoping to maintain their best lineup moving forward.
