Tee Higgins limited during Bengals-Ravens first half with ankle injury

© Sam Greene/The Enquirer Bengals receiver Tee Higgins was listed as questionable for Sunday night’s game in Baltimore.

Cincinnati Bengals receiver Tee Higgins was limited this past week by an ankle injury, and he missed a good portion of the first half of Sunday night’s game against the Ravens in Baltimore because of it.

The Bengals announced early in the third quarter that Higgins’ return was questionable with a left ankle injury.

Higgins was held without a catch during the first half. Receiver Mike Thomas got more playing time, and had one second-quarter reception for 33 yards during the Bengals’ scoring drive that resulted in Hayden Hurst’s 19-yard touchdown catch.

More via Twitter from The Enquirer’s Charlie Goldsmith and Kelsey Conway:

During that drive, Tee Higgins was standing at the front of the sideline wearing his helmet. He has been battling with an ankle injury.

Since he’s not getting red zone snaps, it’s really something to watch.

Tee Higgins is dealing with an ankle injury and it appears the Bengals are using him sparingly

You can feel the difference with Higgins off the field, with even more attention going toward Ja’Marr Chase.

Chase got 11 yards on the first play of the game, and he hasn’t gained a yard since then.
