Professional athletes have no problem spending money, even when it is on ridiculous material things that enhance an outfit or a look, with fashion becoming a big part of professional sports these days.
Along with fancy outfits that cost a fortune in a player’s attempt to look like a fashion icon, some players take things to another level entirely with hairstyles and other accessories, which can cost a pretty penny.
Apparently, Cincinnati Bengals superstar wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase is one of the professional athletes in the NFL who likes to spend money ..read more

The Cincinnati Bengals want to keep Tee Higgins, but he doesn’t seem to be on the same page with them.
Zac Taylor has repeatedly talked about his desire to keep him on board for the long run, but both sides continue to be far apart on a contract extension.
Higgins acknowledged that he’s likely going to be forced to play on the franchise tag before hitting free agency in 2025.
According to a report by Kelsey Conway of the Cincinnati Enquirer (via ProFootballTalk), the offer the Bengals made him “never approached” the $20 million per year range, which is ..read more

The Cincinnati Bengals are expected to be a Super Bowl candidate again next season.
That’s because their top-tier quarterback will be back to full strength, and he’s already shown what he’s capable of when he’s healthy.
Nonetheless, even if he hasn’t been around for that long, we could start making a case for Joe Burrow being injury-prone, as he’s missed plenty of time already with different ailments.
That’s why it only makes sense that he’s not particularly happy to see that the league could look to expand the schedule to 18 regular-season games.

Everything changed for the Cincinnati Bengals as an organization when Joe Burrow got drafted.
The Bengals were in a mediocre rut and were hoping to find a quarterback who could help them get back on track.
He showed what he could do in a shortened rookie year due to injury, further proving himself in his second and third seasons.
Burrow helped turn the Bengals into one of the best teams in the AFC as the front office started to build the team around him.
The Bengals had so much momentum, and then the 2023 season happened.

The Cincinnati Bengals were already facing some uncertainty moving forward because of the contract situations of star wide receivers Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, which has led to rumors that Higgins could be traded.
But they were dealt another challenge on Wednesday when star defensive end Trey Hendrickson asked to be traded because, like Chase and Higgins, he has been asking for a lucrative contract extension.
Luckily for Bengals fans, the team reportedly has no intention of trading him, per Paul Dehner Jr.

There is some uncertainty surrounding the Cincinnati Bengals following the lost season that was their 2023 campaign.
Star wide receivers Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins are looking for contract extensions, and the team likely cannot afford to extend both of them, which has led to rumors they may trade Higgins.
On Wednesday, that uncertainty compounded when, per Adam Schefter, star defensive end Trey Hendrickson asked to be traded.

The wide receiver market has been a game of musical chairs this offseason with so many talented wideouts in line for new contracts and changing markets in order to get what they deserve.
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins requested a trade earlier this offseason instead of playing on the franchise tag, but the two sides have reconciled and he won’t be going anywhere, and neither will his superstar counterpart Ja’Marr Chase.
In an incredibly unsurprising decision according to their official X account, the Bengals have exercised the option to e ..read more

The Cincinnati Bengals already have one of the best quarterbacks in the game in Joe Burrow, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have to be prepared for everything.
If anything, last season proved that you can never have enough depth at QB, and having a solid and capable backup could make a big difference.
That’s why it’s not much of a surprise to see them re-signing Jake Browning.
According to a report by Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, they’ve signed him to a two-year deal through the 2025 season.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow’s main priority this offseason is getting healthy after he suffered a torn ligament in his wrist last season that caused him to miss the final seven games.
Even though that was Burrow’s second season-ending injury in his first four seasons in the league, he has still put up production strong enough to put him atop a specific list.
PFF posted a graphic showing the highest career grades for the 2020 NFL Draft class, and Joe Burrow tops the list at 93.3 followed closely by Justin Jefferson at 93.2, CeeDee Lamb at ..read more

The Cincinnati Bengals entered the offseason with a few pressing questions at hand.
Fans were concerned about the possibility of the team moving on from one of their top receivers, as Tee Higgins had expressed concern with the organization, allegedly requesting a trade from the organization.
While there have been rumors that Higgins was going to be traded, it appears that he is sticking with the team for one more year.
According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, the Bengals reportedly do not want to trade Higgins, who just announced at a youth camp that he is ..read more
