Good extension, keeps an immensely popular guy with the fans and in the locker room around a little longer. I read $6.6 mill over the next two, so I;'d assume the 2025 year is just north of $7mm. Definitely a good move to keep a veteran locker room leader around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 And Tee is helping the team out by signing his tag early. He'll be there for all of camp, instead of holding out into the preseason ala Bates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tee's in, Hendrickson is happy, and the national writers will have to invent something new to try to rip the team for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't take it personally. That's sadly how this industry works. They're only paid when there's drama. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE DUKE Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 To the surprise of no one, the Bengals and Tee Higgins were unable to work out a long term deal after meeting last weekend. I assume Tee wants to be paid like a top of the market receiver and the Bengals don't want to pay him that. Even the franchise tag is less than what WR's have been getting this offseason and it's not tied to multiple years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 Chase hasn't been practicing at training camp this week. He's not commenting but everyone thinks it's because he wants his contract extension now rather than next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is weird, considering everything that we'd heard before indicated he didn't want an extension until next off-season. Maybe that was incorrect.

Maybe that was incorrect. Not exactly. He wanted Jefferson and Lamb done. Only half way there, and with the state of the Cowboys, I hope he just gets his deal in place.

Tank4Drake Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Why is Chase holding out with two years left on his deal? All the other WR’s did it with one year remaining on their contract. It’s not like Chase lit it up last year. Just screams diva/entitled. And this is coming from someone who really likes Chase and picked him in the 1st Round yesterday.

I don't think his sitting out practice makes it likely that he gets a better offer from the Bengals, but it's all he can do at the moment. I guess that's the card he's playing.

THE DUKE Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 WR's are divas. It's the world we live in. I don't recommend holding your breath waiting for Mike Brown to blink though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Ian Rapoport, on Ja'Marr Chase: "My understanding is that the two sides are still discussing a long-term extension, that, if he got it, would make him either: Tied for the highest-paid receiver with Justin Jefferson, or beating Justin Jefferson by one cent, which I believe is Chase's goal." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
