With wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase limited, and Tee Higgins out of the lineup altogether, it figured to be a tough day for the Cincinnati Bengals’ offense. And the troubles continued in the first half against the New England Patriots, bringing out the boo birds for the Bengals' poor showing.
Higgins headed toward the season opener game with expectations of a big role, especially with Chase not practicing in full because of his contract situation. But Higgins tweaked his hamstring and got ruled out of Sunday’s game.
