Overview

  • Tee Higgins has agreed to a four-year, $115 million contract extension with the Cincinnati Bengals, making him the fifth-highest-paid wide receiver in the NFL for 2025.
  • The extension includes fully guaranteed payments for the first two years and potential incentives that could push annual earnings above $30 million.
  • This deal follows quarterback Joe Burrow's vocal support for retaining Higgins, emphasizing the importance of keeping star players to maintain the team's competitiveness.
  • The Bengals also finalized a record-breaking extension with wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase, making him the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL.
  • With Higgins and Chase locked in, the Bengals aim to return to the postseason after narrowly missing out in 2024 with a 9-8 record.
