Quote:The Cinncinnati Bengals and star Ja'Marr Chase are negotiating a contract extension that could potentially make him the highest-paid wide receiver in the league, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

"The two sides are in talks for a deal that would make him among the highest-paid receivers in the NFL or the highest-paid receiver, higher than Justin Jefferson," Rapoport said on Monday (1:00 mark).
He added that there is "nothing done yet," but "progress" has been made in discussions.
Chase has been holding in during practice at various points throughout Cincinnati's training camp as he attempts to secure a new deal.

The former LSU standout could surpass Jefferson, his old college teammate, as the highest-paid wideout in the league. The Vikings star signed a four-year [/url]extension worth $140 million in June, making him the No. 1 receiver in terms of average annual contract value (per [url=https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/rankings/player/_/year/2024/position/wr/sort/contract_average]Spotrac).

Chase still has two years left on his rookie deal after the Bengals exercised his fifth-year option in April and is set to carry a $9.8 million cap hit for the 2024 season.
The 24-year-old has thrived as Joe Burrow's top target in Cincinnati, hauling in 268 catches for 3,717 yards and 29 touchdowns throughout the first three years of his career.

If he doesn’t train today you can assume all those internet wannabes were talking shit.

Ja'Marr Chase was the most involved at practice as we've seen him recently. Spent the portion open to the media helping out with WR drills. pic.twitter.com/cEufVELUF7

Earlier in the summer, I sensed some frustration from Cincinnati—the team wanted to negotiate, and get something done with Chase, but his camp was moving slowly, if at all, on playing their part in it.

From Albert Breer, so the Bengals have wanted to get it done all along while it was Chase refusing to do a deal and refusing to train at the same time.

If that happened over here people would want him to be crucified American fans are much more patient that’s for damn sure.
