Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins has earned his first Pro Bowl selection, being added to the AFC roster for the 2026 Pro Bowl Games. Initially listed as a second alternate for the December roster, Higgins steps in to replace Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers.

In his sixth season out of Clemson, Higgins had an impressive performance, recording 59 receptions for 846 yards and a career-high 11 touchdowns across 15 games, with 14 of those being starts. Notably, his 11 touchdown receptions led all AFC players and ranked him second in the NFL. Higgins also achieved a remarkable milestone with a streak of four consecutive games with at least one touchdown catch between Week 7 and Week 11.

With this achievement, Higgins becomes the 10th receiver in the history of the Bengals to be selected for a Pro Bowl. He joins teammate Ja’Marr Chase, making them the first duo of Bengals receivers to be named Pro Bowl selections in the same season since 2007, when T.J. Houshmandzadeh and Chad Johnson were honored.

The 2026 Pro Bowl Games are set to occur on Tuesday, February 3, at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, California, and will be broadcast live on ESPN. This recognition not only highlights Higgins’ individual talent but also reflects the growing strength of the Bengals’ receiving corps.
