Will Tee Higgins Find His Fresh Start Beyond Cincinnati? A Look at Potential Landing Spots

Tee Higgins is eager for a new beginning beyond Cincinnati. Will his desire be fulfilled? Only time will tell, but ongoing speculation persists despite the uncertainty.

Higgins has emerged as one of the league’s promising young wide receivers, likely attracting interest from numerous teams. However, the extent of his market hinges largely on the developments in free agency. Some prospective suitors have already redirected their attention elsewhere for receiver reinforcements.

Following the initial week of free agency, three teams appear to have eliminated themselves from the conversation regarding a potential trade for Higgins.

The Chicago Bears were frequently mentioned as a possible destination for Higgins before free agency began. Although uncertainty looms over their quarterback situation for the upcoming season, it’s evident that they aim to surround their signal-caller with ample offensive weapons. The speculation seemed plausible.

However, the Bears significantly bolstered their receiving corps by striking a deal with the Los Angeles Chargers to acquire Keenan Allen in exchange for a fourth-round pick. Allen’s recent 1,200-yard performance positions him as a formidable asset, anticipated to form a potent tandem with D.J. Moore on the outside for Chicago.

With the addition of Allen, the likelihood of the Bears pursuing Higgins via trade appears slim. Hence, Chicago can now be excluded from the list of potential landing spots for Higgins.
