The Cincinnati Bengals have had one of the best, if not the best, WR2 in Tee Higgins across the NFL since Ja'Marr Chase was drafted back in 2021.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Higgins ranked #2 WR2 for 2026; two 1,000-yard seasons despite injury history.

Ranked #2 on Sports Illustrated's best WR2 list for 2026, behind only George Pickens. Since joining the Bengals as a second-round pick in 2020, Higgins has recorded two 1,000-yard receiving seasons and two double-digit receiving touchdown seasons. The source notes that had Higgins not missed multiple games due to injury in each of the past three seasons, he'd likely have even more 1,000-yard campaigns on his résumé. Described as the perfect complement to Ja'Marr Chase, forming the most consistent and highest-paid receiving duo in the league over the past five years. With Higgins and Chase out wide, the Bengals hold one of the best passing attacks in the NFL—especially when Joe Burrow is healthy—and Higgins is a pivotal part of that success as he hauls in contested catches and touchdowns.
