Tee Higgins, Bengals front office not close on contract talks

According to Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer, Bengals WR Tee Higgins and the front office are not close to a contract extension, and Higgins is unlikely to be tagged for 2024.

Fantasy Impact: According to Conway, Higgins declined a contract extension over the offseason that did not meet his standards, and the Bengals may not be seeing him in their long-term plans. The more likely options, according to Conway, are a trade or letting him walk in free agency. While it seems surprising, the Bengals owe both Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase big paydays, as well as the rest of the roster, making Higgins a hard keep. The situation could continue to develop through the season.
