Not only did Burrow's injury torpedo this passing game, Higgins missed five games of his own on the way to the worst statistical season of his career. Higgins' downward trend comes at a bad time, as he's seeking a long-term contract, but will instead settle for a franchise tag year. Working against him is the shift to a shorter passing attack. While his average depth of target has risen from 10.7 in 2022 to 12.8 in 2023, his opportunities to make plays hasn't. He had five games of four or fewer targets last season which is equal to the number he had in 2021 and 2022 combined. If this offense goes as pass heavy as I think it will, Higgins should see an uptick in chances if the young bucks behind him on the depth chart don't take too many for themselves. Higgins might not be trustworthy on a weekly basis, but he's the rare WR3 that can pop off and win you a week, especially in standard leagues.

 Bengals list Chase Brown, Tee Higgins as Questionable
Brown missed practice all week
By: Mike Krueger | Thu Jan 2, 2:12 pm
|  | #Bengals RB Chase Brown (ankle), WR Tee Higgins (ankle/knee) and OL Amarius Mims (ankle/hand) are all listed as questionable for Saturday night vs. Pittsburgh. (Tom Pelissero on X)
FFToday's Take: Brown missed practice all week with a high ankle sprain suffered in Week 17. Even if he does suit up, it's hard to imagine him being close to 100 percent. We're likely to see a good dose of Khalil Herbert against the Steelers. Higgins was limited in practice all week but seems likely to play.
