Tee Higgins Signs Four-Year, $115 Million Extension with Bengals

The Cincinnati Bengals have finalized a four-year, $115 million contract extension with wide receiver Tee Higgins, making him the highest-paid WR2 in NFL history. The deal comes after Higgins was franchise tagged for two consecutive years, allowing him to secure a long-term future with the team alongside fellow receiver Ja'Marr Chase, who signed a separate four-year, $161 million extension. In the 2024 season, Higgins recorded 73 catches for 911 yards and 10 touchdowns, solidifying his role in the Bengals' dynamic offense. With this extension, Higgins is now contracted through the 2028 season, leaving the Bengals with a solid core of wide receivers. The team, which narrowly missed the playoffs last season, now has $26.8 million in available cap space for the upcoming league year. Both Higgins and Chase are expected to continue to be key contributors as the Bengals aim for a stronger performance in the future.
