Bengals WR Tee Higgins caught 2 TDs in Sunday's blowout win over Atlanta, giving him 5 scores over his past 3 games. The TDs salvaged an otherwise quiet outing, as Higgins managed just 32 receiving yards, his second-lowest total of the season.
2026 Fantasy Football Impact: Higgins Stays Hot
Higgins scored on a pair of end zone balls, one from 4 yards out and another from 8. He made several physical receptions at the catch point, while benefiting from a highly efficient Joe Burrow. He went 24 of 29 for 271 yards and 3 passing scores.
Cincy ran only 55 offensive plays but scored on three of four red zone trips. The Bengals now sit sixth league-wide in red zone scoring rate.
Cincy’s WR strength of schedule ranks 23rd through Week 17, but that’s not a concern with how well Burrow and Higgins are playing. Higgins now ranks fourth at the position in PPR points per game. Keep starting him as you normally would for Sunday's home game vs. Pittsburgh.
