Just … ouch.
The Cincinnati Bengals are facing a situation where not just one superstar wants out of town, but two of them do — wide receiver Tee Higgins and defensive end Trey Hendrickson.
Back in March is when the original reports were circulating about Higgins wanting out of Cincy. However, he went on to say after the fact that he looks forward to being a Bengal in 2024, but it looks like that was all a PR campaign. Adam Schefter, an NFL insider for ESPN, issued an update on social media Wednesday, saying that Higgins’ plan is to exit Cincinnati.

In the past three years, Higgins has recorded 2,776 yards and 18 touchdowns as a No. 2 wide receiver. Higgins was also a topic of debate during trade rumors that were going on in the middle of the 2023 season. Assuming that the Bengals wouldn’t be able to pay for all their elite talent, Higgins drew a massive amount of interest from teams.
Just a day prior to the NFL Draft, Hendrickson made his trade demand public Wednesday. On his current contract, the defensive end only has one year remaining that would owe him $15 million. In 2023, Hendrickson was incredibly elite, putting up a stat line of 17.5 sacks and 43 tackles. The 29-year-old now aims for Cincy to give him a bigger deal or move him to another team who will make it happen.
Bengals franchise WR Tee Higgins also has requested to be traded being that there have been no contract talks with the team now in over a year. https://t.co/vN984f7TVb
