Tee Higgins (hamstring) likely out Week 10 for Bengals
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (hamstring) is not expected to play in Week 10 against the Houston Texans, reports Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
What It Means:
Higgins is considered week-to-week after injuring his hamstring in practice on Wednesday. Ja'Marr Chase is dealing with a bruised back, so Joe Burrow will not have either of his top two weapons at full strength on Sunday. Tyler Boyd will take over as the Bengals' No. 2 receiver while Higgins is out, with Trenton Irwin and Andrei Iosivas running more snaps behind him.
The Texans are allowing the third-fewest FanDuel points per game to receivers, but their pass defense is only 25th in numberFire's opponent-adjusted NEP model. Higgins has a 17.4% target share this season while averaging a mediocre 1.37 yards per route run.
