Because you never know what happens down the road. Higgins could play great this year, want to remain in Cinci.  and accept much much less than Chase which may let Chase walk. 

Also, Chase could get seriously injured this year and not be in the plans after a couple years. Chase is doing this healthy, when the going rate has already been determined and at a time when all other receivers are actually getting paid.
