Tee Higgins (ankle) day-to-day for Bengals, Week 6 status TBD
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (ankle) is day-to-day, per head coach Zac Taylor.
What It Means:
Higgins barely played Week 5 and then sat out the first two practices this week, but he made it back to practice on Friday. Taylor indicated that Higgins could wind up being a game-time decision on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints. Mike Thomas will likely join Ja'Marr Chase and Tyler Boyd in three-wide sets if Higgins is held out.
Higgins averaged 6.8 targets over the first four weeks and registered the second-highest target share (17.3%) on the Bengals behind Chase (26.3%). The Saints are ranked 23rd in FanDuel points allowed per game to the wide receiver position this season, but their pass defense is 10th in our advanced team metrics.
