Nevertheless, such a choice could potentially upset Burrow. The Pro Bowl quarterback greatly values the chemistry and performance of the Higgins-Chase receiver duo, which provides Cincinnati with a significant edge when facing NFL defenses. Should the Bengals fail to find an adequate replacement for Higgins, they may find themselves grappling with a significant gap in their lineup for an extended period of time.
Conversely, a second wide receiver, even one as talented as Higgins, may be deemed less crucial than acquiring a top-tier right tackle or a game-changing player on the defensive line. Despite Coach Zac Taylor’s recent remarks indicating Higgins’ potential return for the next season, the Bengals’ management is expected to remain receptive to alternative scenarios, especially if a rival team presents an enticing first-round draft pick.
