NFL Rumors: Tee Higgins 'Could Get a Little More' Than Jaylen Waddle, DeVonta Smith
Tee Higgins is going to get paid a lot of money from a team this offseason, but he's not expected to sign a deal at the very top of the wide-receiver market.
Per ESPN's Dan Graziano, the sense from some people around the NFL is that Higgins could sign for a deal worth more than Jaylen Waddle in average annual value and more guaranteed money than DeVonta Smith got on his extension from the Philadelphia Eagles.
On the latest episode of The Scoop City podcast (starts at 34:00 mark), The Athletic's Dianna Russini noted that Higgins "wants to have an answer" for what's next in his career "very soon" and he doesn't want things with the Cincinnati Bengals to drag out into the start of free agency.
