CINCINNATI — Tee Higgins is focused on the ultimate prize in what could be his final year with the Bengals. The star wide receiver is playing at a high level through the first six games on his one-year franchise tag.

Higgins dove into whether this season is more special because it could be his last in stripes.

"Obviously, I want to make it something special, just because we want to win the big one as a whole," Higgins noted on Thursday. "If it is the last one, then obviously, yeah, I want to make it something special."

Higgins has 29 catches for 257 yards and 2 touchdowns across four games this campaign. He's top-35 among NFL wide receivers in catches and TDs, despite missing the opening two games.

"It's a big year for me. So, definitely playing with a little bit more oomph," Higgins said about his performance. "Just trying to help my team get wins at the end of the day."
