Ja'Marr Chase has decided to halt negotiations for a long-term contract with the Cincinnati Bengals during the season, citing feelings of being misled by the team regarding a potential extension. Chase, who is currently on a rookie deal, expected a new contract after the 2023 season but only had his fifth-year option picked up, which will significantly increase his salary in 2025. In response to the stalled talks, he has taken out a $50 million insurance policy to protect against injury and lost earnings this season. The Bengals have a history of not negotiating contracts during the season, making it unlikely that discussions will resume until the offseason of 2025. Chase is focusing on the upcoming game against the Kansas City Chiefs, where he aims to continue his strong performance against them. This decision to cease negotiations comes as other players from his draft class have secured lucrative deals, further highlighting his frustrations with the Bengals' approach to his contract situation.
