Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins continues to put up elite numbers in his 2026 campaign. This past Sunday, Higgins reeled in 10 catches for 155 yards and two touchdowns as the Bengals secured a 43-36 victory over the Tennessee Titans. After this stunning Week 8 performance, Higgins ranks second in NFL receiving yards with 726 — trailing only reigning Offensive Player of the Year Jaxon Smith-Njigba of the Seattle Seahawks.
The NFL recognized Higgins' stellar outing with an announcement on Wednesday, naming him the AFC Offensive Player of the Week. The Bengals reacted to the announcement with a post of their own. "Tee time," the Bengals wrote on social media.
Higgins has 43 catches for 726 yards and four touchdowns through the first seven games of the season. His superstar wide receiver teammate, Ja'Marr Chase, has 43 catches for 492 yards and six touchdowns. Chase also had a huge game this past Sunday, reeling in 11 catches for 141 yards and a touchdown.
The Bengals will look to maintain their positive momentum into this coming Sunday's Week 9 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons in Madrid, Spain.
