The Cincinnati Bengals have signed four-year extensions with wide receivers Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, solidifying their passing game for the future. Chase will become the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history with a $161 million deal, while Higgins will receive $115 million. Chase led the league in receptions, receiving yards, and touchdown catches last season. The team’s director of player personnel, Duke Tobin, emphasized that Chase was a top priority for the team and expressed confidence in reaching a deal. Higgins had a strong season as well, with 10 touchdown catches and over 900 receiving yards. The Bengals are also working on an extension with All-Pro edge rusher, Trey Hendrickson. Despite Hendrickson seeking a trade, the team is hopeful they can reach an agreement and continue to reward their players for their contributions. Tobin highlighted the team’s commitment to managing their salary cap effectively to retain key players. With Burrow having his top two receivers locked in, the Bengals aim to build on their success and remain competitive in the league.
