The Cincinnati Bengals escaped with a squeaker against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. In a game that was closer than expected, the Bengals pulled out their season-opening road win when Browns rookie kicker Andre Szmyt missed a potential go-ahead field goal with 2:25 left as the kick sailed wide right.
The Bengals held on for the win, and one player’s mom wasn’t just at the game; she was also throwing smoke at Browns fans. And in true baller fashion, she wasn’t doing it only when her son’s team was winning, but the entire game.
What Did Tee Higgins’ Mom Say on Social Media?
Tee Higgins’ mom, Camilla “Lady” Stewart, showed up in Cleveland representing her son’s team like a boss.
Much of the attention she’s received came after the Bengals’ win, when she posted on X:
“Y’all them puppie fans were so upset with me for hollering Who Dey and if u know me then u know I was on it, y’all they even told me to go back to Kentucky umm excuse me I didn’t know that there was a Cincinnati, Ky man they were big mad.”

That wasn’t the only time Higgins’ mom was barking back at the Dawg Pound. She spent the whole game giving them grief.

The Bengals got off to a fast start. Cincinnati took the opening kickoff and went on a 12-play, 68-yard drive capped by Chase Brown’s 5-yard touchdown run.
The Bengals went 3-for-3 on third downs during the series, including a 13-yard completion from quarterback Joe Burrow to Higgins.
It was the first time the Bengals scored a touchdown on their season-opening drive under head coach Zac Taylor, who took over in 2019.
Cleveland, however, had its chances. The Browns stayed close thanks to a stout defense and two takeaways, but couldn’t finish when it counted. Szmyt missed not only the potential go-ahead kick late but also another attempt earlier in the half
Up next for the Bengals are the Jacksonville Jaguars, featuring No. 2 pick Travis Hunter, in Week 2. The Jaguars overpowered the Carolina Panthers 26-10 in their Week 1 clash.
