Case in point, ESPN’s Ben Solak recently wrote that he would like to see Higgins traded to the Washington Commanders. That idea makes sense for Washington’s side: Jayden Daniels is a breakout rookie quarterback, and getting him a true No. 1 with the ample cap space would be fun for them.

While Tee Higgins put up numbers during Week 5 of his fifth season in Cincinnati, his days in a Bengals uniform may be numbered. After the Bengals applied the franchise tag on Higgins in February, he requested a trade because he and his representation couldn't reach an agreement on a long-term contract extension with the franchise.

There is a reasonable rationale for the team to get value for the star instead of letting him walk this offseason
