Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins and linebacker Logan Wilson will play in Monday night's game against the host Jacksonville Jaguars, coach Zac Taylor said.

Taylor, however, said cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt will not play for the Bengals (5-6) on Monday. Taylor-Britt sprained his ankle during practice on Friday.

Higgins has missed three straight games due to a hamstring injury.

Higgins, 24, has 27 catches for 328 yards and two touchdowns in seven games this season. He has 242 receptions for 3,356 yards with 21 touchdowns since being selected by the Bengals in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft.

Selected in the next round of the same draft, Wilson is expected to play versus the Jaguars (8-3) despite nursing ankle and foot injuries.

Wilson, 27, has 89 tackles, three interceptions and two forced fumbles in 11 games (all starts) this season. He has 345 tackles, 10 interceptions, 5.5 sacks and four forced fumbles in 51 career games (41 starts).

Taylor-Britt, 24, has 46 tackles and four interceptions -- including one returned for a touchdown -- in 10 games (all starts) this season. He has 101 tackles, four picks and two forced fumbles in 20 career games (19 starts) since being selected by the Bengals in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft.
