Healthy, and back just in time for a must-win AFC clash on Sunday Night Football’s stage, Tee Higgins amended for lost time in the best way a star wideout could: by losing every defender in his path. Breaking free of his two-defender bracket from within the slot, Cincinnati’s elite 6-foot-4 talent introduced blazing speed on a double move, quickly separating himself down the seam for a 42-yard touchdown. The much-needed 4th & 2 conversion helped continue the Bengals’ fierce claw back into Nov. 17, 2024’s game, as they turned a 21-point deficit into a tie over a 13-minute span. For Higgins, it marked the second-highest receiving yardage total (148) of his career, alongside nine receptions (on 13 targets) and a touchdown in a 34-27 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers.
