NFL Week 8 injury report: Bengals’ Tee Higgins gets surprise injury designation; Tyreek Hill questionable

The final injury reports are coming in for Week 8 as the halfway point of the season is near. The Cincinnati Bengals got a surprise with Tee Higgins suffering a quad injury on Friday, hurting his chances of playing on Sunday. Meanwhile, the Miami Dolphins are set to get Tua Tagovailoa back as he cleared concussion protocol while the Washington Commanders will determine the status of Jayden Daniels.

Andrei Iosivas is the leading candidate to fill in for Higgins. Tackle Orlando Brown (knee) and safety Geno Stone (shin) were not given an injury designation. 

The Ravens had Flowers practice in a limited capacity on Friday, so he’ll be a game-time decision Sunday. Mitchell won’t be providing insurance for Derrick Henry this week, but he’s close to a return soon.

The Lions are relatively healthy heading into Sunday, as many of their offensive linemen had rest days earlier in the week.
