Tee Higgins Injury Update: Bengals Nation Holds its Breath
The Cincinnati Bengals are holding their collective breath as they anxiously await news on Tee Higgins' injury status. The star wide receiver went down in the second half of the Bengals' Week 17 game against the Buffalo Bills with an apparent ankle injury.
What Happened?
Higgins landed awkwardly after making a catch, and immediately grabbed his ankle in pain. He was helped off the field and did not return to the game. This left Bengals fans with a sinking feeling in their stomachs, as Higgins has been a key piece of the Bengals' offensive puzzle.

However, early reports suggest the injury might be "serious." This news, while not confirmed, is enough to send chills down the spines of Bengals fans.
The Impact of Higgins' Absence
Losing Higgins would be a huge blow to the Bengals. He's a true No. 1 wide receiver, capable of dominating games with his size, speed, and ability to make contested catches.

The Bengals need to get Higgins back healthy as soon as possible. Their playoff hopes hang in the balance. The Bengals have a tough matchup against the Baltimore Ravens in the Wild Card round, and they'll need all their weapons firing on all cylinders if they want to advance.
