- Tee Higgins has come a long way to be here. From his hometown in Tennessee. From abject defeat and want.
There are a lot of come-from-nothing stories in pro sports, too many really. LeBron James once said he would like to read less of those because that would mean kids wouldn’t have to do so much overcoming in their young lives.
But, as James also said, nothing is given, everything is earned.
Few know that more than Tee Higgins.

Tee: banging on door
Aunt Denise: "Is you done loss yo raggedy mind?"
Me: 😂😂😂
wasnt no script involved, she meant that shit🤣🤣🤣
After she said I don’t want to bombard her he proceeded to bang on the door non-stop 😂😂
Man I want him to be a Bengal for life!
He is
Nah...when contracts are up he can get #1 money somewhere...they not gon be able to pay him and Chase top bag...
@@SnakeyD8468 yes they will
@@GeeHuncho3 watch...the team start disbanding after the next 2 yrs ...happens everywhere and The Bengals aren't a top revenue team....
@@SnakeyD8468 Their organization had a reputation for being cheap...but maybe they'll find a way to keep that WR duo together....there are teams out there that's gonna offer Tee WR1 money
Wow. She survived!! Wonderful. Hope to see his success keep going. Brave young man.
as a bengals fan to know higgins been through a lot that i was raised around makes me like him even more....sadly i didn't end up as good as him and ended up joining a gang while my parents was out getting high on dope and ended up in jail half of my life, now i've been out of trouble over a decade got away from the gang violence and work a normal 9 to 5 job while going to college ...too bad it took me until my 40s to realize there is always hope for all of us....there is always hope...whodey!
Nevertheless, good for you!
I'm disabled now and I look at CZcams a lot and I appreciate this more than anything I've seen in the last year
God speed brother
bengals whole WR corps is amazing.
Good dude he is so genuine and humble ❤️🐅🧡🖤🧡🐅🖤
Tee Higgins #85 hope he’s a Bengals for LIFE!! Also his Aunt seems like real down to Earth person sweet lady
Special kid, great future ahead
I hope he stays a Bengal for life. He will always have a future anywhere he goes.
Tee is going to be a very darn good reciver for the Bengals
Already is!!
Cincinnati glad to have u 🐅🥺
I love this, and LOVE TEE! More of this please!
What a role model! I like him even more now ✊🏽🙏🏼
You could see in his eyes....this is a good young man....a top quality person. I remember being ECSTATIC when the Bengals drafted him. I just pray that the organization can figure out a way to lock him up long term. With the crazy ways the salaries and the cap are going....that might be tough. How AWESOME would it be to have Burrow, Chase AND Higgins locked up long term??!!!
I went to a Lenoir City, a high school near by, and we played against him. I played for LC and I remember meeting him. He seemed like such a humble and nice guy. I wish nothing but the best for him
Loudon is still better
How can you not like Tee?
Proud of this young man
I love you bro I've always liked you but this is special
Tee is amazing! Good job homie you deserve the success you created
You know he loves his auntie so much lmao. The way he knocked on the door like an annoying nephew got me good.
My favorite wide receiver. You deserve all the succes in the world! God Bless you! #whodey
Great guy. The obstacles he had to overcome made him the guy he is now. Never giving up. Giving it his all, his best effort. I really cannot imagine our Bengals without him.
love Tee, we need to sign him long term
We love u teee
Thankful for having tee going to be great to be a bengals for years to come
Man, I love Tee. Seen him play in college. Been a Bengals fan since I was 10. Over 20 years now. A lot of frustration and commitment. I can never be a fan of another team, I just cant. This is my team no matter the good or the bad. The year Tee came into the draft, I made a mock draft. Burrow was obviously going number 1, but I crossed my fingers and had Tee going to us with our 2nd round pick. Did I know he deserved to be a 1st rounder? Absolutely, his taped proved that. But, we got lucky . A lot of other teams made a mistake and passed on him. I got his jersey from Bengals pro shop online asap. One of the best in the business and he will only get better.
Just an Real Good Dude , Gotta Keep Him And Chase !!!!!
I love tee! He’s about to GO OFF this year!
My favorite player right now! I love Chase, but i love the way Higgins plays and his story
Wow, I had no idea! Good for you, Tee! Keep it rolling.
Just a good dude man..plain and simple, good people doing right by each other especially in the hard times. Hope he can call it a career here, and hope the Browns REALLY understand what kind of squad they have on their hands. Should be able to collect hardware a couple times at least 💯
browns?
@@alexkirschner9672 Family not team 👍
He plays on the Cincinnati Bengals team. The browns wish they had him....
I’ve made food for the guy working at Eli’s BBQ 3 times. He brought his mom and a couple family members with him to come and get food a couple days after the Hamlin incident. We’ve never bothered him and just treated him like a regular person, and I think that’s why he feels comfortable coming in. (95% of us were wearing Bengals gear). Just a super cool, down to earth guy.
"Is u done lost yo rabid mind?" Man, the flashbacks
Who dey, God bless you Tee
Never thought that little boy that used to play football in the street with me, Seth and Oliver would've been so big. We're proud of you kid.
Man there’s something about this dude!!! He makes everything look ez
We love you Tee!!!
What a beautiful young man!
Wow, what a story. Tee Higgins is very special and is going to have a great year ✨😤💪🏾
Go Tee!! 💪
Great story and we will stay tuned.
I just want tee to be successful no matter where he's at. Bengals better make him a hell of a deal after this season cause there is gonna be some teams out there with deeper pockets. Love my hometown home boy from the Ridge. Making us all proud here in Oak Ridge Tennessee on and off the field. Go Tee!!!!
MY FAVORITE BENGAL DUE TO THIS!!!!! 🍾🥂🐅🐯 FELLOW JUNGLE ANIMAL
🤙🏽awesome
Come on home bro
He's gonna friggin ball his ass off this year with an improved o-line. Everybody eating!!!
Oak Ridgers are very proud of Tee.
No doubt
We got real survivors on are team
banging on the door 😅
I love this dude more than I care about the rigged nfl , Dey
Oakridge very low on crime but it's a lot dope money in Oakridge. U gotta be real careful tho there's a lot secret plants radiations plants out there. I didn't even know ole boy was from Oakridge this whole time. Glad to see one these young nicxas get out the hood tho and I'm a Raven hate the Bengals but this made me a T Higgins fan
Jesus Loves everybody Amen 🙂
Jesus is Lord Amen 🙂
i hope he gets a big payout from whoever
That was a total. Steal to get tee in 2nd rd.
What a horrible story...
Crazy his last year we put them out the playoffs but always will support tee 865 423💪🏾
