During a youth football camp, Tee Higgins was asked during an interview about the off-season and next steps for him. Being asked if he plans to stay in Cincinnati, Tee Higgins said “I do anticipate it. I’ve grown a love for Cincy that I didn’t think I would. But I’m looking forward to it.”

Tee Higgins was franchise tagged this off-season which frustrated him, leading up to a trade request. Contracts continue to be discussed and nothing is off the table, yet after hearing his interest in staying in Cincinnati, Higgins and the Bengals have some work ahead of them to work out a contract both parties can agree upon.
