BREAKING: Pittsburgh Steelers get contract price on Tee Higgins

What will it take for the Pittsburgh Steelers to land Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins? Higgins is set to become a free agent, and while the Bengals could still control his status with a franchise tag again, if he hits free agency, Higgins is expected to get a huge contract.

On Saturday, ESPN insider Jeremy Fowler talked about Higgins’ future in free agency and what the price might be to land him for a team. It seems that $30 million per season would be around the right mark for Higgins, who has proven to be a top wide receiver in the NFL.

“The over/under on Bengals receiver Tee Higgins’ market is $30 million per season, and the majority of team personnel that I spoke with believe he’ll hit or clear the over. The lowest estimate I heard was somewhere slightly above DeVonta Smith’s three-year, $75 million deal. The rest saw him breaking into the $30 million range, based on his status as a No. 1-caliber receiver and the number of teams desperate for pass-catching help,” Fowler wrote.

Higgins has shined next to Ja’Marr Chase, and even when Chase is out, Higgins has produced. Injuries have become an issue for Higgins at times, and that could be the one issue that a contract for Higgins raises.

Quarterback Joe Burrow, Chase, and Higgins have all expressed a desire to play together for the future, but the Bengals will have to shuffle the chairs on deck to allow that occur.
