Tee Higgins didn’t need much time to dominate the Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday. On the surface, the numbers look bad enough, with Higgins putting up nine catches for 148 yards. But he did all his damage across two quarters, seeing all his targets and receptions in the second and third frames of this game.
Pittsburgh had no answer for him. Higgins worked over all three of the Steelers’ top corners and SS Terrell Edmunds with Levi Wallace crediting the Bengals’ scheme after the game for freeing Higgins up.
“I think they do a great job of scheming him to get open,” Wallace said postgame.
