In the final game of the Week 9 Sunday slate, the Cincinnati Bengals defeated the Buffalo Bills 24-18. The Bengals now improve to 5-3, while the Bills drop to 5-4.
Offensive spotlight: This could easily be quarterback Joe Burrow for his 300-yard passing performance, but we'll give the nod to wide receiver Tee Higgins, Burrow’s top receiver in the game. Higgins finished the game with 110 receiving yards on nine targets and eight catches.
The juke from Tee Higgins was nasty 😳
