The Cincinnati Bengals, to the delight of quarterback Joe Burrow, extended receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins with four-year deals.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow threw his weight around by publicly pressuring the front office last year nearly every time he got in front of a microphone. Naturally, then, it stands to reason that Burrow was doing the same thing behind the scenes while pushing the team to get long-term extensions for both Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins done.

In the chaos of the Cincinnati Bengals nailing down long-term contract extensions for Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, not much has been said about Joe Burrow's contract yet. Burrow restructuring his contract so the Bengals could do the Chase and Higgins deals was one of the most popular running theories around the entire situation.
