The sixth-year receiver is only getting better.

Tee Higgins overcame a hamstring injury and uncertainty surrounding his future in Cincinnati to score 10 touchdowns and make multiple clutch plays.

As a result, he was named by his peers in the NFL to his first ever top 100 players list.

In the short video above, opponents who faced Higgins had some high praise for him in their interviews.

“I consider him a number one receiver,” said Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Cooper DeJean said. “It’s a tough matchup for any defense.”

That about sums it up; Higgins would be the top option on...

It seems Shemar Stewart is calling the Bengals bluff.

The Cincinnati Bengals and their first round pick Shemar Stewart have been in disagreement over the language of his rookie contract since the team first started practicing this offseason.

A new wrinkle has been added that may force the Bengals hand. It appears Stewart has been practicing with Texas A&M (his college team from last season).

Bud Elliot from 247 Sports had this to say from the video.

"A guy who has had some good [Texas] A&M stuff in the past, he hit me, he's like, 'Hey, Shemar might end up...

The former UDFA spent time with the Titans and Seahawks, and now we’ll see if he’ll add the Bengals to that list.

The Cincinnati Bengals are on summer break, but training camp is fast approaching and the team still have one open roster spot left. However, that could change soon.

According to KPRC 2 Houston’s Aaron Wilson, the Bengals are set to host a workout for free agent defensive tackle Kyon Barrs. After playing the majority of his college career at Arizona and one year at USC, Barrs was signed by the Titans in 2023 as an undrafted free agent....

It’s hard not to love a good underdog story.

Neither Trey nor Shemar have signed — or, in Hendrickson’s case, agreed to a new extension — and the Cincinnati Bengals are officially on summer break. That means there’s nothing to talk about.

So let’s talk about something happy.

Everyone loves an underdog. When I watch an NFL game, I always root for the team whose win would help the Bengals most. But if that’s not on the line, I’ll always pull for the underdog. I don’t care at all about most NFC teams, but if it’s a Thursday night game...

Camp is drawing near

Bengals News:

Trey Hendrickson situation still unpredictable

Aside from a new post on social media from Hendrickson, we haven’t heard hardly any movement between he and the Bengals as camp draws near.

As camps prepare to open, 32 draft picks remain unsigned

The Bengals aren’t only in a contract dispute with one defensive end, they still need their first round pick to sign on the dotted line.

The Bengals and the All-Pro edge rusher are talking and hoping to get a long-term deal done.

It’s a fact that Trey Hendrickson and the Cincinnati Bengals are talking again. That’s a good thing. The Bengals and their All-Pro need to reach an extension so he can be on the field in Week 1.

Bleacher Report’s Gary Davenport is predicting a three-year, $130.5 million deal for Hendrickson, saying, “If the Bengals have legitimate aspirations of a deep playoff run, they need to figure out a way to get a deal done with Hendrickson. But with each passing week, that appears...

Ja’Marr Chase doesn’t shy away from complimenting the defensive backs that will see him the most.

"It's easy. I mean, Denzel," Chase said. "It's twice a year. It's one on one majority of the time. He got great feet. He knows leverage, he knows splits. He's one of the best I like playing."

Once again, this offensive unit is set to be special.

The NFL season is quickly approaching as the Cincinnati Bengals look to make some noise after a down year in the Queen City.

With a new-look defense, one thing that has remained the same is this offensive unit. Some new names have been added to the offensive line, but overall, the playmaking of the Bengals offense remains elite. That is why they received a ranking among the best in the league.

Bill Barnwell of ESPN recently released his ranking of the top playmaking units in the NFL, and the Bengals...

The Bengals are in the middle of a couple of contract standstills with some big defensive stars and Jesse James Taylor gives his view of what’s going on.

While expectations are high for the Bengals in 2025, and they have re-signed a number of their core players this offseason, some issues are lingering. A couple of defensive stars in which the team was relying upon in 2025 have contractual issues to get ironed out.

The 2024 runner-up to the Defensive Player of the Year Award, Trey Hendrickson, is trying to negotiate a longer-term deal with the team, while Cincinnati’s 2025...

The Bengals offensive line, although it may be overlooked, has depth this season.

In addition to Cincinnati Bengals fans clamoring for the team to sign another starting-caliber guard in free agency before next season, another thing fans have been longing for for years is offensive line depth.

Here’s the deal, though: This season, they have it. Whether or not it’s great depth, it’s there. There are bodies in that room that can help adequately navigate the war of attrition the NFL season is.

One of those depth pieces is fifth-round draft pick Jalen Rivers out of Miami (FL). After blocking...

Hey, some good news!

The Cincinnati Bengals, like all the other teams across the NFL, are on summer break after the close of mandatory minicamp.

The team has been in the news for a myriad of reasons, most of which are negatively covering their contract negotiations with Trey Hendrickson and Shemar Stewart, but there is the occasional good news.

This is one such occasion.

ESPN’s Bill Barnwell recently listed some of the players who should be considered as luxuries for the teams they play on. You’d think, for the Bengals, it would be Joe Burrow, Ja’Marr Chase, or Tee Higgins,...

The Bengals certainly could have done more.

2025 NFL offseason grades: Draft, trades, more moves by team
Let's address the receivers first. Coming off a season in which he led the league with 1,708 receiving yards on 127 receptions, Chase was certainly going to get the raise he deserved. But he really got paid. Sometimes when players receive record-breaking contracts it's a product of natural progression, moving in line with the cap's rise. This was not that. Chase's $40.25 million APY extension is the highest in OverTheCap.com's historical wide receiver contract list even if we adjust for salary cap inflation....
