February 17Feb 17 Author comment_1787317 This was the right decision and a great sign that they intend to sign him to a long term. 🧡  If not, a team will have to trade for him as the Bengals will not just let him walk for nothing.Â
February 17Feb 17 comment_1787325 Great news! Â I can wear my #5 Higgins jersey another couple years now

February 17Feb 17 comment_1787331 Mixed reporting on this, he's getting tagged, but I also just read it wont be until the final possible moment while they try to work out a deal.
February 18Feb 18 comment_1787333 Yeah, I've seen it said that the tag is done to buy time for a contract extension. Â That seems likely.Â
February 18Feb 18 comment_1787335 I believe Tee wants to be here to play with Burrow and Chase. At this point, the move is to sign or trade him.  No sense in another one year situation.  I think a deal can be done but we’ll see what happens. Â
February 18Feb 18 Author comment_1787337 This is actually the perfect example of why the tag was created. Â The Bengals don't handle extensions that well, but they sure know how to use their tag.Â
February 18Feb 18 comment_1787338 Honestly I'd be all for a trade if it didn't mean trying to draft another Tee Higgins with those picks..Â

Not that great of a deal.  It's hard to find another Tee Higgins (top 10 WR in the NFL) even in the first round. For every Justin Jefferson there is a John Ross.Â
February 18Feb 18 Author comment_1787340 I would be open to dealing Tee for a DL player straight up, like Dexter Lawrence or Myles Garrett. Â But the Giants or Browns wouldn't take that deal.Â

It would take Tee and a high draft picks . Id rather have Tee than Lawrence.... Im looking for McKinley and Kris Jenkins to take a big step up. Best keep Tee..  He makes plays and takes a load of JMarr and a huge playmaking ng target for Joe.
