Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins suffered a shoulder injury in September that caused him to miss two games. He then played the rest of the season, through the Super Bowl, with the injury, but he has now had surgery to repair it.

Higgins had surgery for a torn labrum, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. He is expected to be good to go before training camp.

Despite the shoulder injury, Higgins had a strong second season, catching 74 passes for 1,091 yards and six touchdowns in 2021.

Higgins was at the Cincinnati Reds’ opening day game yesterday with his arm in a sling.

  1. You have to wonder why he waited till now to do the surgery. Why not go right after the season, and get as much rehab time as possible?

  2. He had the surgery very soon after SB , not just recently

  3. I’ve had labrum repair surgery on both my shoulders and you have to stay in the sling for minimum 6 weeks. We’re only 8 weeks beyond the SB right? He’ll be good to go by training camp.
