Higgins (hamstring) was a full practice participant Wednesday, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Listed as limited the day before, Higgins now appears locked in for Saturday's game in New England, though his hamstring injury has already caused a few anxious moments for fantasy managers this month. He played 80 percent of offensive snaps in Sunday's 34-23 win over Tampa Bay, catching five of eight targets for 33 yards and a touchdown.

Higgins (hamstring) is listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's practice report estimate, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Higgins was present for the walkthrough with Cincinnati on a short week ahead of Saturday's game against the Patriots. His hamstring injury has been an adventure in the second half of the season, but Higgins was able to handle 80 percent of snaps and eight targets (5-33-1 receiving line) in Sunday's 34-23 win over Tampa Bay. A similar workload this Saturday wouldn't come as any surprise.

EDGE Analysis

Higgins was able to suit up after lasting just one snap before injuring his hamstring in Week 14. The third-year standout didn't suffer any setbacks in his return and rewarded fantasy managers with his sixth score of the season. The Bengals will take on the Patriots, who are notorious for shading extra coverage towards the opposing team's top wideout (Ja'Marr Chase in this case), in Week 16. With that in mind, Higgins could be asked to take on more than his usual No. 2 wideout duties if Chase is contained Saturday.

Higgins (hamstring) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

As is fellow wideout Tyler Boyd (finger), which is good news for Cincinnati's Week 15 passing attack, with top tight end Hayden Hurst (calf) unavailable. Higgins was limited to just one snap in Week 14 due to his hamstring issue, but after being limited at practice Wednesday and Thursday, the 2020 second-rounder was listed as a full participant Friday. That practice pattern suggests he has a chance of seeing closer to his normal workload this time around, in the absence of any in-game setbacks.

Higgins (hamstring), who is listed as questionable, is expected to suit up for Sunday's contest against the Buccaneers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Higgins and fellow wideout Tyler Boyd (finger) are both expected to be available Sunday, though top tight end Hayden Hurst (calf) is ruled out. After Higgins was limited to just one snap Week 14 due to his hamstring issue, however, fantasy managers will still want to monitor his official status when Cincinnati's inactive list is revealed 90 minutes ahead of Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

Higgins (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers after being listed as a full practice participant Friday, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The same applies to Tyler Boyd (finger), which makes the duo's status worth confirming ahead of Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. That said, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site notes that there is optimism from coach Zac Taylor, as well as the wideouts, that both Higgins and Boyd will be active this weekend.

Higgins (hamstring) noted Friday that he expects to play Sunday against the Buccaneers, Andrew Gillis of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Meanwhile, Geoff Hobson of the Bengals' official site relays that in reference to the Week 15 statuses of both Higgins and Tyler Boyd (finger), coach Zac Taylor indicated that he "feel(s) good about it." Friday's final injury report will clarify whether one or both of the wideouts head into the weekend with injury designations.

Higgins (hamstring) remained limited at practice Thursday, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

As did Tyler Boyd (finger), which gives both wideouts a chance to play Sunday against the Buccaneers. Higgins, who was limited to just one snap Week 14 due to his hamstring issue, likely will need to practice fully Friday, however, in order to avoid a Week 15 injury designation.

Higgins (hamstring) was limited at practice Wednesday, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

The same goes for Tyler Boyd (finger), with coach Zac Taylor having previously indicated that the duo's status ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers is a day-to-day situation. Higgins' hamstring issue limited him to just one snap in Week 14 versus the Browns, while Boyd suffered a dislocated finger in that contest and recorded just two snaps.

Coach Zac Taylor said Monday that Higgins (hamstring) is day-to-day, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Higgins played just one offensive snap Week 14 due to a right hamstring issue that he aggravated during pregame warmups. Tyler Boyd (finger) also suffered an injury Sunday, and both wideouts now are considered day-to-day. Given Taylor's comments, fantasy mangers will have to monitor the Bengals' practice reports throughout Week 15 prep for further clarity on which wideouts will be available Sunday against Tampa Bay.
