Top Landing Spots For Tee Higgins In Free Agency: 2024 Offseason Outlook

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is one of the better young wide receivers in the NFL. The star receiver totaled at least 900 receiving yards and six touchdowns in each of his first three career years.

Unfortunately, he had a disappointing 2023 season. Higgins set career lows in receptions (42), targets (76), receiving yards (656), and touchdowns (five). Higgins struggled to stay healthy while Joe Burrow dealt with his injuries. Yet, that shouldn’t hurt the former Clemson star’s market this offseason.

Higgins is a free agent next month. Where will he be playing in 2024? Let’s dive into it.

Will Tee Higgins Hit The Open Market?

The veteran wide receiver has been one of the most talked about players on social media over the past several months. The Bengals gave Burrow a massive extension before the start of the 2023 season. Meanwhile, Ja'Marr Chase is eligible to sign a long-term contract next month.

Despite having other needs on the roster, Cincinnati is expected to keep Higgins around for next year. Reportedly, the team will place the franchise tag on the star receiver while letting Tyler Boyd walk in free agency.

Which Teams Could Sign Tee Higgins In Free Agency?

However, nothing is set in stone until the team formally places the franchise tag on the wide receiver. Even then, Cincinnati could tag and trade Higgins to another team this offseason. If he doesn’t return to the Bengals, where could Higgins play next year?

The Tennessee Titans have been one team most linked to the star wide receiver over the past few weeks. They hired former Cincinnati offensive coordinator Brain Callahan as their new head coach this offseason. Higgins recently praised his former offensive coordinator in an interview with the media.

Tennessee has high hopes for Will Levis. However, the second-year quarterback won’t succeed without help at the wide receiver position. DeAndre Hopkins has something left in the tank but isn’t the alpha wide receiver he was during his younger days. Meanwhile, Treylon Burks has struggled to stay healthy in his short NFL career.

Higgins would give Levis a legitimate top wide receiver to build chemistry with for the next few years. The star receiver’s familiarity with Callahan could give the Titans a leg up if Higgins hits the open market next month.
