The Cincinnati Bengals have achieved long-term agreements with wide receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, alleviating previous contract tensions. Chase's record-setting four-year, $161 million deal includes $112 million guaranteed, making him the highest-paid non-quarterback. Higgins, having played under a franchise tag last season, signed a four-year, $115 million contract with guarantees for two years. This strategic move by the Bengals prevents contract disputes that impacted prior seasons, allowing them to focus on the upcoming season with their top playmakers in place and quarterback Joe Burrow secured.
Chase's four-year, $161 million extension sets an NFL record for non-quarterbacks, ensuring the Bengals' star receiver remains pivotal in their offensive strategy.
Higgins secured a four-year, $115 million deal, crucial for maintaining the Bengals' competitive edge without disrupting team dynamics as in the past.
