Is Tee Higgins playing today? (Injury Update, Betting Impact on Raiders vs. Ben

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is not expected to play in Week 9 against the Las Vegas Raiders with a quad injury.

Higgins was listed as questionable for Week 9 and also missed Week 8 with an injury before not practicing at all this week.

The Bengals need to beat the two-win Raiders to stay in the mix for an AFC playoff spot, and they will likely lean heavily on Ja’Marr Chase in the passing game on Sunday.

Chase had nine catches for 54 yards and a score in the Bengals’ Week 8 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Here’s what bet I’d make on Chase in the prop market this week.

Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook.

Through eight games, Chase had only three games in which he posted 84.5 receiving yards but found the end zone seven times.

This is where I’d bet on Chase, even though his landing prop is set at -145 at any given time.

Over the past six weeks, Chase has found the end zone in five of those games, recording several two-goal plays.

Without Higgins, Chase should get a ton of targets from Joe Burrow in Week 9.
