Bengals notebook: Tee Higgins gives himself 'C' grade, update on right guard, plus more

Cincinnati Bengals rookie wide receiver Tee Higgins is coming off an impressive game. Higgins scored two touchdowns in his second NFL start. Yet, the rookie wideout gave himself an average grade.

“Yeah, the two touchdowns are great and all, but at the end of the day I grade myself probably a ‘C’ in that game,” Higgins said.

Higgins gave himself a ‘C’ grade for his Week 3 game because of near reception that was taken away after Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman stripped the ball from him late in overtime. Higgins admitted that he showed his hands too early, which allowed Robey-Coleman to disrupted what would’ve been a big overtime catch.
