HUGE news for the Bengals, as they are seemingly wrapping up two big contracts for both of their star wide receivers towards the beginning of free agency.
A moment a year-plus in the making has reportedly arrived. League sources close to Sports Illustrated’s James Rapien say the deals for Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins are “done” and official signings are just a formality at this point.
It’s great news for the Bengals organization and a big relief for what was becoming an uninspiring start to their 2025 free agency period. The deals are reportedly going to be around a $70 million annual average value, with the team locking up its core three offensive stars for the long-term.
We’re going to catch you up on things and talk about the deals on a brief Saturday episode of The Orange and Black Insider! Join us for the live show at 8:15 p.m. ET, or catch it on your favorite platform afterward.
