Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins pops up at the next best place to be at other than Cincinnati’s offseason workouts
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins took part in Chad Johnson’s annual wide receiver camp in South Florida. A to Z Sports’ own Rob Gregson caught up with the star wideout.
Just because they’re not at offseason workouts, doesn’t mean some of your favorite Cincinnati Bengals players aren’t getting ready for the 2026 season.
Wide receiver Tee Higgins got some work in Wednesday afternoon in Miami, FL as part of former Bengals WR Chad Johnson‘s Wideout Workshop camp.
What better way to train in the offseason than with one of two receivers in the franchise’s Ring of Honor?
After getting some work in, Higgins took a few moments to chat with A to Z Sports’ Rob Gregson about the Bengals, and his mindset entering 2026.
Stats to strive for
Higgins is entering the seventh year of his career. He’s eclipsed 1,000 receiving yards twice. Consider it the cost of injuries, and playing with the NFL’s former highest-paid receiver in Ja’Marr Chase.
The 27-year old is pushing for that 1k mark, and trying for a third-consecutive year with double-digit touchdowns.
“Trying to shoot for that 1,000 yards this year,” Higgins told Gregson. “I’ve missed that the last three seasons. Trying to get at least 10 touchdowns. Just throwing some goals out there.”
1,000 yards exactly would elevate Higgins to seventh on the all-time franchise leaderboard at 6,441. 10 trips to the end zone would make him fourth behind Johnson (66), A.J. Green (65), and Carl Pickens (54) at 55.
Unchanging mindset
Higgins’ last 1,000-yard year occurred one year after the Bengals’ most recent Super Bowl trip. Cincy has missed the playoffs in each of the last three years, but just returning to the dance isn’t on the top of the Pro Bowler’s mind.
“Win that bowl,” Higgins said. “That’s No. 1. Other than that, man, it’s just finishing games at the end of the day. We gotta finish.”
The Bengals’ 6-11 campaign in 2025 was a product of letting games slip away from them. Whether it was during Joe Burrow’s injury absence or after his recovery, late-game struggles are rightfully something Higgins wants to be a part of erasing.
Higgins is getting the mind and body right for the fall.
