Despite publicly requesting a trade, Tee Higgins doesn’t see himself playing for another team in 2024. The Bengals receiver, who has been in pursuit of a new contract, does not think that Cincinnati will trade him before the start of the upcoming season.
“We’ll see. I do anticipate (playing for the Bengals in 2024),” Higgins said, via Fox19. “I’ve grown a love for Cincy that I didn’t think I would. Looking forward to it.”
Higgins’ desire to stay in Cincinnati is nothing new; he just wants the team to commit to him long term. He’s currently slated to play the 2024 season under the franchise tag that will pay him $21.816 million this season.
The Bengals haven’t ruled out re-signing Higgins, but the two sides reportedly haven’t discussed a new deal since last offseason, which led to Higgins requesting a trade earlier this offseason that has led to non-stop speculation about his future with the team.
