Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is signing his franchise tender Saturday, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
By signing his franchise tender, Higgins is expected to be at training camp after he missed the Bengals' OTAs.
Higgins had requested a trade but said in April that he expected to play for the Bengals in 2024.
A long-term deal for Higgins still is considered a long shot. The two sides haven't discussed an extension in over a year, a source told ESPN. Of the eight players who were given the franchise tag this offseason, Higgins is the only one who has not signed a multiyear contract.
