Bengals' Tee Higgins (rest) out for Week 18
The Cincinnati Bengals have ruled out receiver Tee Higgins (rest) for their Week 18 game against the Cleveland Browns.
What It Means:
The Bengals have said they plan to rest some of their key starters heading into the playoffs, and will hold out Higgins against the Browns. Higgins' absence should clear the path for Ja'Marr Chase to break the rookie receiving yardage record.
Higgins' season started off slowly (especially compared with Chase), but as the year progressed the receiving production level out somewhat between the team's two top pass-catchers. He'll finish his sophomore regular season with 74 catches for 1,091 yards and 6 touchdowns.
