Higgins, Lawrence Play Starring Roles in Bengals Win

The Cincinnati Bengals earned a 43–36 overtime victory over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday in Week 8 of the NFL season, thanks to the help of big-time performances from a pair of former Clemson stars — wide receiver Tee Higgins and defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence.

Higgins had a monster day as a leading star in the aerial attack, hauling in 10 receptions for 155 yards and 2 touchdowns on 11 targets.

He scored a 17-yard touchdown in the third quarter following a turnover, and later forced overtime by reeling in a clutch 18-yard touchdown pass from Joe Burrow with just 1:17 remaining in regulation.
