Trade Tee Higgins: 6 potential teams for Bengals

Tee Higgins requests trade from Bengals, potential landing spots include Titans, Giants, Washington, Chargers, Bears; deep WR rookie class may impact deal.

Tee Higgins has officially requested a trade from the Cincinnati Bengals, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. This news came as a shock to the Bengals fan base, just hours before the NFL's legal tampering period opened. Now the question arises, which teams would be the best fit to trade for the star receiver?

One potential landing spot could be another receiver-needy team in the AFC South, the Tennessee Titans. With former Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan now the head coach of the Titans, there is a familiarity with Higgins' abilities. Despite having DeAndre Hopkins on the roster, Tennessee could benefit from adding another big target for their young quarterback, Will Levis.

Could David Mulugheta work his magic again? Last offseason, he helped facilitate former Bengals safety Jessie Bates III signing with the Atlanta Falcons. With rumors swirling that Atlanta is pursuing Kirk Cousins in free agency, pairing him with Higgins could be a possibility.

The New York Giants are in desperate need of wide receiver help, and Higgins could be a great fit. With Daniel Jones set to receive a contract extension, adding a talented receiver like Higgins could significantly boost their offense.

The Washington Commanders, under new ownership, have the cap space to make a big move. With a potential new quarterback on the horizon and the possibility of losing Curtis Samuel in free agency, Higgins could be a valuable addition to their roster.

The Los Angeles Chargers may be in the market for a new wide receiver, with the potential departure of Mike Williams or Keenan Allen. Pairing Higgins with young quarterback Justin Herbert could be a winning combination for the Chargers.

The Chicago Bears, expected to select Caleb Williams as their new franchise quarterback, could benefit from adding Higgins to their receiving corps. With uncertainty surrounding Darnell Mooney and DJ Moore's contracts, Higgins could provide stability for the Bears.

The Jacksonville Jaguars recently acquired Gabe Davis, likely taking them out of the running for Higgins. Additionally, the deep rookie class of wide receivers in the upcoming draft could impact the market for a potential Higgins trade.

In conclusion, Tee Higgins' trade request has opened up a world of possibilities for potential landing spots. With several teams in need of a talented receiver like Higgins, it will be interesting to see where he ends up.
