Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (ribs), who was listed as questionable, is active to play Sunday versus the Seahawks.
Higgins did not play in Week 5 against the Cardinals due to suffering a cracked rib in Week 4 against the Titans when he had two receptions for 19 yards. Against Arizona, it was Ja'Marr Chase who shined as Joe Burrow's top target for the day, recording 15 receptions for 192 yards and three touchdowns to get the Bengals a 34-20 win.
Higgins had his best game so far in Week 2 versus the Ravens when he recorded eight receptions for 89 yards and two touchdowns. Now, the 24-year-old will be back out on the field to hopefully help a Bengals offense that seems to have finally found its footing.
The Seahawks and Bengals kick off at 1:00 p.m. ET.
