The Cincinnati Bengals have made a significant move by securing contract extensions for their star wide receivers, Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. This decision keeps the dynamic duo in Cincinnati for the next four years, ensuring they continue to be a key part of the team’s offense.
Ja’Marr Chase has signed a remarkable four-year deal worth $161 million, with $112 million guaranteed, making him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history. Tee Higgins, on the other hand, has agreed to a four-year contract valued at $115 million, with the first two years fully guaranteed. This deal positions Higgins as the highest-paid No. 2 wide receiver in the league.
Chase was entering the final year of his rookie contract, while Higgins had received the franchise tag for the second consecutive offseason. Both players have become essential to the Bengals’ success, showcasing their talent and chemistry on the field.
The Bengals’ decision to lock in these contracts reflects their commitment to building a strong team around quarterback Joe Burrow. With Chase and Higgins signed for the next four years, fans can look forward to more exciting plays and touchdowns in the upcoming seasons.
