Of course, plenty has changed for the Bengals since then, with Joe Burrow being lost for the season after suffering a torn ligament in his right wrist on Nov. 16.<\/p>\n<h2>          <span>            Related Links          <\/span>        <\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>              Week 13 NFL picks: Who wins epic matchup between 49ers and Eagles?

The 27-year-old accounted for one touchdown and an interception in the 16-10 defeat.<\/p>\n<p>The presence of Higgins may help Browning&#8217;s cause. The 6-foot-4 wideout is a matchup nightmare for most opposing cornerbacks, especially those covering him in the slot. In seven games played this season, Higgins has 27 receptions for 327 yards and two touchdowns.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside Ja&#39;Marr Chase and veteran Tyler Boyd, Higgins has been the missing piece of a WR trio that Burrow has used to become one of the most efficient passers in the NFL. Now it&#8217;s time to see how Browning utilizes those weapons against Jacksonville.<\/p>\n<p>Cincinnati&#8217;s defense will also have one of its leaders take the field on Monday night as Taylor also announced linebacker Logan Wilson (ankle\/foot) will also play. However, cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt won&#8217;t suit up after spraining his ankle in practice this week, according to Taylor.<\/p>\n<p>Losers of three straight, the Bengals (5-6) can&#8217;t afford to stack losses down the home stretch of the 2023 season.
