Joe Burrow has made it clear he wants the big three to stay together. Now the Bengals need to see if they can make it work.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins continues to fight through multiple injuries, this time ahead of the season finale, against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 18. Like last week, Higgins projects to be out there in the cold with the season and playoff hopes on the line.

Former Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrew Hawkins made a case on ESPN’s NFL Live for why current Bengals free agent receiver Tee Higgins should consider taking a deal from the organization, even if it isn’t the absolute maximum he can get.

The Cincinnati Bengals still seem likely to lose Tee Higgins in free agency, but one predicted replacement would cause every fan to age tremendously over one season.
