I think the hope they take less money is from the fans chase will be the highest non QB contract and you can't give Tee an offer that excludes things that every other franchise would give him and expect to sign him. I heard Zeitler say that the team reached out in 21 ( I believe) with an offer that was so low it was insulting and considering he just played for a 1yr 6mil dollar deal im curios what exactly it was.Offensive line and defense as an entirety was terrible..Bengals made some definitive changes that should give you hope..not joe Burrows meanderings in front of the press..Bengals pay their players well ..including joe Burrow......and there are many of us ( fan base) that have seen this team draft and retain players that have injury concerns and it does not turn out well..Higgins cant stay healthy and thats a fact..Joe Burrow will be out on the field giving it 100% regardless of how things turn out..You all are acting like Higgins will be shipped to Siberia and working for pennies a day..Higgins will be fine ,he will continue to play in the NFL ..he will be a multimillionairre many times over..So let me ask you a question NUGDUKWE..f you managed a company would you hire an employee that you know is going to miss work almost one third of the time and leaves early with illness another third of the time..Doubt it.Have a nice day
As far as his comments though they are the only thing giving me hope. It's one thing for the team to ignore fan rumblings but now the face of your franchise is watching and if they try and low ball and go cheap it's not going to sit very well with him or the fan bas
