The Bengals placed the franchise tag on T Higgins for the first time last year , and it cost them about $21 million to do so.
That price is locked in no matter how much the receiver market has changed since then, no matter what the salary cap is going to be later this week .
Higgins switching up his agency a couple months ago matters a ton in this regard.
Higgins was the only player last year to receive the tag and not get a contract extension afterwards.
And at least from what I've heard, there's been no indication that the Bengals have any interest in trading T Higgins . So yes, the Bengals are going to use the tag on T Higgins once again. And no, there hasn't been an agreement on a new contract just yet. But expectations remain completely different this time around compared to last year . And it's only a matter of time before we learn if those expectations match what reality will be..
