Week 5 has arrived! Unfortunately, the injury watch for fantasy managers is also here. Players who appear on the Friday injury report and haven’t practiced much during the week can often lead to trepidation for managers trying to make lineup decisions and/or waiver claims. Don’t fret, though – FantasyPros is here to provide you with all of the latest news and updates on the players who are questionable heading into the weekend.
Tee Higgins suffered a rib injury in Cincinnati’s Week 4 game against Tennessee and only logged one limited practice during the week. So will he play in Week 5? Here’s the latest we know.

Tee Higgins (ribs) officially questionable for Week 5
Cincinnati Bengals WR Tee Higgins, who suffered a rib injury last week, is officially questionable to play in Week 5.
Fantasy Impact
Higgins’ practice report this week went DNP-DNP-limited, which isn’t a promising sign for a player’s availability, but Higgins said earlier this week that his availability would revolve more around pain tolerance. It’s tough to tell with Higgins what will happen, as his 2022 fantasy managers will recall a game where he was questionable, played one snap, and then sat out the remainder of the game. His situation should remain closely monitored for any additional information that could arise.
What the Experts Are Saying
Higgins (ribs) didn’t practice until Friday (limited). He has been listed as questionable. I’ll update his status on Saturday, but I expect Higgins to miss Week 5.
