Tee Higgins says he hasn’t seen any change Joe Burrow‘s attitude despite the scary burglary at his home earlier this month… telling TMZ Sports the QB “handles it very well.”
Burrow’s Cincinnati pad, of course, was broken into back on December 9 – while in Texas playing in a “Monday Night Football” game against the Dallas Cowboys.
The situation was worrying: one of his windows was smashed… while one of his bedrooms was ransacked. To make matters worse, Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Olivia Ponton was on stage — creating more concerns and questions for Burrow.
However, Higgins said this week, while giving away bikes to kids at a cool Raising Cane charity event, that Burrow hasn’t held back much despite the situation… explaining, “That’s something he’s had to deal with personally.”
Higgins said there hasn’t been any team meeting to discuss the case…although he did tell us he and some other Bengals have been evaluating ways to increase their security after the crime.
As for whether he’ll have a Cincinnati-area address much longer… Higgins — an impending free agent — told us he really wants to stay in Bengal stripes beyond 2024-2025, but he understands that he can only do so much. control.
“You know, this company is insane,” Higgins said. “I’m going where God wants me to go, and you know I’ll go from there.”
Cincy has just three games remaining — and even though the Bengals’ playoff chances are virtually nil and its future anything but certain, Higgins says he’s trying to win them all.
