Newer update on Tee Higgins: Week 5 injuries: McLaurin, Chase/Higgins, Jefferson/Addison

Tee Higgins Suffers Adductor Injury on Sunday

Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins suffered an adductor injury, according to Ben Baby, raising concerns about his availability.

By Cole Hartwell

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins sustained an adductor injury on Sunday, according to a report from Ben Baby relayed by Underdog NFL on X. The severity of the injury is not yet known.

What happened

Higgins suffered the adductor injury during Sunday’s game. The report did not specify when in the game the injury occurred or whether Higgins was able to return. No additional details on the injury’s severity have been released.

Context

Higgins has been a key part of the Bengals’ passing attack this season. Through Week 3, he has recorded 23 targets, 14 receptions, 244 receiving yards, and one touchdown. In Week 3, he caught six passes for 90 yards and a touchdown while playing 93% of the offensive snaps.

Higgins is listed as the No. 2 wide receiver on the Bengals’ depth chart behind Ja’Marr Chase. Prior to this injury, he had no injury designation coming into Sunday.

What’s next

The Bengals have not yet provided an update on Higgins’ status or a timeline for his return. He will likely undergo further evaluation to determine the severity of the adductor injury. His availability for Week 4 against the Bears is uncertain.

🏈 Fantasy impact

An adductor injury could sideline Higgins or limit his effectiveness even if he plays. Fantasy managers should monitor his practice participation this week. If Higgins misses time, Ja’Marr Chase likely sees an even larger target share, and Andrei Iosivas or Trenton Irwin could step into a bigger role. Consider picking up Iosivas as a speculative add in deeper leagues. Higgins is a risky start for Week 4 until more news emerges; have a contingency plan ready.
