Via comp or tag and trade.

My pushback though is this assumes it is as simple as 1) tag Tee and 2) Tee plays his best ball for the Bengals in '24. I'm concerned that his agent's influence or Tee being a normal person with feelings might influence his performance. Of course, the counter to my point is that he'll want to be on the field to maximize his future earnings.
