The Bengals have a very good chance of keeping Tee. Apparently he wants to stay, Chase is good for him and of course Burrow is a no brainer. A contract that the Bengals could do and make Tee happy is something close to what AJ Brown received from the Eagles.
The cap is expected to hit 230M next season but may surpass that number. New TV money and overseas contracts are expected to take the cap to 300M as soon as 2026. Teams are flush with cash. Depending on how Burrow's contract is constructed - rolling guarantees, etc., we could not only keep Tee but also sign Bates with a deal that is somewhere in the middle of Williams and Fitzpatrick... a Bates-Hill safety tandem the next few years could be elite.
