Starting to think he's checked out for the rest of the season
I think it is possible he never takes the field for the Bengals again.
I also wouldn't be surprised if he's tagged and on the field next year.

$50.00 that he plays on Monday.

It's a little early to rule him out even if you knew he wasn't going to play. Must have something to do with not reporting Burrow's injury and being under investigation. Maybe not, who knows?

I just read that Tee has played 65% of games in his career as a Bengal not including this upcoming week against the Steelers.
Tee wants big bucks, are other teams going to pay him top dollar with a record like that?

Depends on who the team is. Desperate teams often overpay for the player they get. I do think his value is dropping.

Agreed, he's 24 and had success as a skill position player. A desperate team will offer him a nice contract.

Yes I agree, when hes on the field he is a big difference maker for sure and love Tee's playing, but a big investment can hurt a team long term if he signs a huge contract and continues to miss games due to injuries specifically his history with hamstrings.

Oh stop it. For the millionth time hamstring injuries are no joke for WR’s. How long has Justin Jefferson been out now?

Teams desperate for a #1 will. Thankfully that’s not us.

he's will have missed 3 games with a pulled hamstring. Chase Brown went on IR for the same injury. Depending on severity for a WR this is a 3 week to out for the season injury.

Okay hope they give Yoshi the start and enough snaps for us to tell if he can be a starter for us - he has flashed ability consistently but we need more snaps to be sure.

yes, he's that good.
Perine made himself a name giving the broncos a win.

You can never discount the free agency wildcard of a GM who is going to 100% lose his job if the next year isn't good and will lay out an insanely desperate contract and overpay players because he knows if it doesn't work out he won't be around to suffer the after effects.
If the Giants or Panthers or maybe some other downtrodden and desperate team don't give Tee #1 money, I'd be surprised.

People saying it’s a business decision go pull your hamstring then try run after 3 weeks and see how you get on.
Tee being injury prone is an entirely different debate and there are some serious questions about his reliability if we are going to pay him in the offseason.
But to question if he’s sitting out by choice is ***** ridiculous.

We might want to have same discussion with Burrow, Higgins has played 1 more game than Burrow and they entered league same time.
