How good is Tee Higgin really?

The Bengals scheme, being a pass heavy offense.

Having Joe Burrow as a QB.

Being the second option behind Chase (like TJ benefitted from having Chad drawing all of the attention).

Having a porous defense and an ineffective rushing attack that didn't allow for shut out games.


Just thinking when you factor it all in, maybe he's not as good as some think, and why he is not being pursued hot and heavy as a trade target, not even taking his injury history into consideration... With that same line of thinking, the scheme, qb, surrounding talent taking away attention, maybe that is why Boyd is not swimming in offers and still a free agent?

Tee Higgins wasn't behind Ja'Marr Chase as a rookie, and he did just fine playing with the Ghost of AJ Green and Brandon Allen for half the year. In fact Team Sewell's rallying cry was we don't need Ja'Marr Chase because we have Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd.

I'm not sure that we know what kind of offers they're getting for Tee Higgins. I do know that Tee Higgins is a pretty damn good WR.
