Bengals WR Tee Higgins requests trade ahead of free agency
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins has requested a trade.
Roughly two hours before the “legal tampering” window of free agency opened on Monday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported the following:
Bengals franchise WR Tee Higgins has requested a trade, per sources. Higgins loves Cincinnati and hoped to be with the team long term, but is disappointed that the team has not had any talks about a long-term contract extension since March 2023. He’s ready to move on to a new home.
The Bengals applied the franchise tag to Higgins before the scouting combine and currently have until July 15 to work out a long-term extension with the star wide receiver.
