Tee Higgins is off to an outstanding start with a chance to break A.J. Green Bengals’ rookie record with 976 receiving yards.

Tee Higgins has 33 receptions for 488 yards and three touchdowns through the first eight games of the 2020 season. Higgins has a chance to challenge A.J. Green’s Bengals rookie record of 1.057 receiving yards in 2011. Higgins played in only 15 percent of the Bengals snaps in the season-opening 16-13 loss to the Chargers.

Higgins has played at least 57 percent of the snaps since with a minimum of 78 percent over the past four games which came in the Bengals 31-20 victory over Tennessee two weeks ago.
