“Looks like a cow” “Least favorite pants”: NFL fans rip into Tee Higgins’ pregame outfit as Bengals WR arrives for Week 9 game vs. Bears

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins drew attention on X after arriving for Week 9 on Sunday, and it wasn’t for his hands or route-running.

His pregame look, featuring bold black-and-white pants, became a talking point among NFL fans online. They shared their reactions after the Bengals posted pregame of players entering Paycor Stadium.

Higgins sported fuzzy, loose-fitting cow-pattern pants paired with a dark undershirt and an oversized flannel, which had shades of brown, green and black. He completed the look with dark sneakers and silver chains.

“Looks like a f---ing cow and is horrible,” one fan wrote.

“That might be my least favorite pants I have ever seen in my life,” another fan wrote. “For the ones talking about his pants... he don’t care what y’all like and don’t like don’t make him,” one fan said.

More fans reacted.

“Right... he’s wiping his tears with hundred dollar bills,” one fan commented. “TEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!” another fan said. “Need 2 TDs big bro,” one fan tweeted.

Tee Higgins has a shot at joining elite company on Sunday. A touchdown against Chicago would make him the third player in NFL history to record scoring catches in nine straight home games. This is a mark previously reached by Jerry Rice (1989-90) and Cris Carter (2000-01).

The wide receiver entered Week 9 averaging 14.4 yards per catch and pushing defenses vertically with an average target depth of more than 13 yards. With Joe Flacco under center, Higgins has been targeted 20 times in three games, often working downfield to stretch coverages.

Flacco, who suffered a shoulder sprain in last week’s 39-38 loss to the Jets, was cleared to start on Sunday. He briefly exited that matchup but returned to lead Cincinnati’s final drive before the loss.

Chicago safety Kevin Byard is expected to see plenty of Higgins in coverage, given the receiver’s ability to win contested catches and create mismatches downfield.
