Bengals do it for all the reasons you stated along with a future Pitts extension that would be 10M less than Higgins when the time came.

As for this year it is difficult to say that Pitts wouldnt be an improvement in some form or fashion.  Tee hasnt been very good himself.

They have Drake London as their WR1.

They won't have a strong passing offense, as Arthur Smith prefers a run-heavy offense.

They might want Higgins since London will be on a rookie contract through 2026, but I don't think Higgins would be overly productive in Arthur Smith's offense.
I think he'll put up about the same numbers we see him put up with the Bengals.
