He is supposedly asking for something similar to Michael Pittman’s deal of around $23 million. I think we all agreed that was Higgins’s range when the Pittman deal was announced. There have serious no negotiations since the initial offer

If this is true, it is apparent, by the low ball offer that the Bengals never had any intention of resigning Tee
.

If this is true, and I believe that it is, then I have to wonder why they didn't try harder to keep Jesse Bates. I figured they let him walk because Joe, Ja'Marr, and Tee were the priorities. Water under the bridge now... If Burton hits, Tee's replacement is already in house, and Chuck Fizzle, or Yoshi better step the hell up the following season.
