Tee Higgins Dealing With Abductor Injury

Sunday, October 4, 12:40 PM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is dealing with an abductor injury, head coach Zac Taylor said after Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Charlie Clifford. Higgins was hurt after making a 19-yard catch late in the fourth quarter and needed attention from the training staff. He missed the next play but returned later in the drive, catching a pass on his first snap back. Higgins finished with 11 receptions for 157 yards, easily his best receiving total through four games. Taylor did not provide a timetable or any additional details on the injury immediately after the game.

Matthew Golden in the Midst of a Breakout Season

Wednesday, September 30, 5:11 AM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden has been in the midst of a breakout season in 2026. In three games, the second-year receiver has hauled in 15 of 30 targets for 253 yards and a touchdown, averaging just under 13 half-PPR fantasy points per game. After struggling mightily in his rookie season, Golden has turned the corner, with the Packers using him more frequently and implementing the second-most pass-heavy offense in the NFL this season. While Christian Watson will remain a key part of this passing game, there's no reason he and Golden can't both produce in this pass-heavy offense, with running back Josh Jacobs on the commissioner's exempt list. As they face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 4, Golden is a must-start wide receiver as he looks to build on his hot start.
