- Chase has two years left on his rookie contract but seeks a significantly higher pay.
- He is listed as questionable for the season opener against the Patriots due to limited practice time.
- Both Chase and fellow receiver Tee Higgins' availability for Sunday remains uncertain.
- Chase has expressed willingness to play this season without a new deal if necessary.
