Packers Consider Adding Bengals Star Tee Higgins to Bolster Offense

Discussions arise around Green Bay's need for a proven WR1 as players and analysts weigh in on potential offseason moves.

Green Bay Packers are evaluating the possibility of signing Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins, who is set to become a free agent.
Higgins, projected to command a four-year, $101 million contract, has demonstrated consistent production with two 1,000-yard seasons and a strong 2024 performance of 911 yards and 10 touchdowns.
Packers running back Josh Jacobs emphasized the team's need for a proven WR1, citing the young receiver corps' potential but lack of consistency at the top level.
Quarterback Jordan Love expressed confidence in the current receiver group but acknowledged that adding a high-level player like Higgins could elevate the offense further.
The Packers have $44 million in cap space for 2025, creating financial flexibility to pursue Higgins or other veteran options to strengthen their Super Bowl aspirations.
