However, it’s worth noting that the Bengals have the option to use the franchise tag on Higgins or negotiate a long-term contract during the upcoming offseason.
When asked about the possibility of Higgins departing, Ja’Marr Chase expressed a lack of consideration for such an outcome, stating, “Nah not yet. I’m not even trying to get that far.”
Higgins referred to Chase as his wingman in the decision-making process, emphasizing their strong on-field connection. He acknowledged the importance of weighing Cincinnati’s best offer against potential offers from the market.
Higgins expressed admiration for playing alongside Chase, describing him as his wingman and highlighting the mutual improvement they bring to each other’s games.
The duo has showcased their synergy on the field, ranking 19th (Chase) and 20th (Higgins) in NFL receiving yards since 2020.
Chase elaborated on their successful partnership, emphasizing their selflessness and teamwork. He explained that their ability to feed the ball to whoever has the “hot hand” stems from a lack of selfishness, demonstrating a collaborative approach to the game.
Both players understand how to utilize each other effectively, strategically positioning themselves to navigate double teams and work harmoniously on the football field.
