It is no secret that the Cincinnati Bengals have one of the best offenses in all of the NFL with Joe Burrow, Ja’Marr Chase, and Tee Higgins.
The Bengals trio has continued to get better and better each season, and Tee Higgins has taken another step in 2026.
Higgins currently has 27 catches for 423 yards and a touchdown through the Bengals’ first 5 games, but he has been exceptional in one specific category.

Higgins currently lives in a world of his own against man coverage so far this season.
The Bengals wideout plays across from Ja’Marr Chase, which creates opportunities for him to win one-on-one against NFL corners.
Not only is Tee seeing man coverage, but he is also winning at an incredibly high rate.
Tee had a monster game against Jacksonville, posting 11 catches for 157 yards after Chase went down with a concussion early in the game.
The Bengals wideouts will need to win consistently this week as well against the Ravens in Baltimore.
