Tee Higgins

CINWR • #5

Bengals signed Tee Higgins to a four-year, $115 million contract, making him the highest paid No. 2 wide receiver in NFL history.

FOX Sports’ Jordan Schultz reports that the first two years of Higgins’ new contract are fully guaranteed. The deal keeps the 26-year-old Higgins in a Bengals uniform through the 2028 season. He caught 73-of-104 targets for 911 yards and 10 touchdowns en route to the WR17 finish in PPR scoring formats last year. Higgins occasionally misses time due to nagging soft tissue injuries but regularly performs at an elite level when healthy. Appearing in 12 games last season, Higgins finished as the WR15 or better six times, including three top-four showings. He currently projects as a rock solid WR2, with easy WR1 upside. The Bengals simultaneously signed Ja’Marr Chase to a record-breaking four-year deal of his own, keeping the team’s elite wide receiver duo intact.
