Will they? Who knows? They might let him play his final year and tag him. You never know with the Bengals.

AJ Green was dominant through 1st 5 years. Then fell off somewhat next 2. Then, continued to decline.
Maybe Chase will be more Steve Smith and productive later? But, there's a chance he has 3 more years of being great. I sure hope not, but looking at other guys careers...it's possible.
But, I could see the Bengals letting him play out his rookie deal. Then tagging him once or twice, which takes him through Year 7.
Sure hope we just pay the man, I see him being more of a Steve Smith type anyways. Dude is built and knows how to avoid taking the big hits.
