Tee vs a NEW D

Obviously I'm just speculating, but he fired said agent, and has since said it wasn't about getting paid like a #1 and that he understands playing with a QB like Burrow, and having Chase presents him with a lot of opportunity in this offense. I think Tee actually wants to stay. 

You have excellent points with the rest though. It's hard to argue against, but I like Tee Higgins the player, and I REALLY like Tee Higgins the person. I hope they can work it out personally.

I agree Tee wants to stay with the Bengals. Who wouldn't if in the same situation, unless you had a crazy ego and wanted to "make your mark" someplace else?

Always playing from behind, so the team passes a lot.

Catching balls from a future hall of fame QB.

Never getting covered by the #1CB and often overlooked due to the attention the defense gives to Chase.

The idea he would want traded to a team where he would be covered by the #1CB, face more double teams, and catch balls from an inferior, less accurate, QB is silly.

I do not want to re-sign Tee unless it is at a discount, or there is an injury clause in his contract, but I believe he wants to remain a Bengal because the world knows how good he has it in Cincinnati.
