Following a week of uncertainty, the Cincinnati Bengals will have a key piece of their offense in the fold on Saturday.
Wide receiver Tee Higgins is officially listed as active on the Bengals' injury report for their Week 17 soiree with the Denver Broncos.
Despite having been a healthy fixture in Cincinnati's lineup for the last month, Higgins was battling several issues involving his knee and ankle.
This isn't a major shock as things had been trending positively for Higgins throughout the week; ESPN's Jeremy Fowler said that he was "optimistic" that the wideout would be in the lineup.
"Tee Higgins is optimistic that he will play," Fowler said on SportsCenter. "The Bengals are expecting him to play after having a productive week of practice. Was limited all week, but I was told from the source, he got better every day on his knee and ankle issues, nothing major, but just something he had to fight through. He's been a little touch and go throughout the year, but this is one of the top three agents in 2025 he can make himself even more money these final games ... Should have Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins ready to put up those 30 points. Slim playoff hopes, still alive, Higgins will be out there."
Higgins is hot off of an eight-catch performance that included a touchdown score in last week's victory over the Cleveland Browns.
