Three teams have emerged as favorites to land Cincinnati Bengals star wide receiver Tee Higgins following his trade request.

With the NFL’s legal tampering period set to begin this week, the wideout is reported to have hit the Bengals with a demand to trade him. ESPN’s Adam Schefter broke the news, claiming the player loves Cincinnati and was hoping to remain there long-term but is unhappy with his contract situation.

The 25-year-old is now one of the more attractive pass-catchers on the market.

The Three Favorite Landing Spots For Tee Higgins
The Jacksonville Jaguars, Carolina Panthers, and Tennessee Titans have been named as favorites to land Higgins in the wake of the surprising report.

It’s also been reported that the WR wants to play with either Trevor Lawrence, C.J. Stroud, Lamar Jackson, or Josh Allen.

The Jaguars should be encouraged by this if they are interested in the player’s services.

Meanwhile, Carolina could do with a player of Higgins’ ilk after having Adam Thelein as their main target last season. Bryce Young can also use all the help he can get. Such a scenario would work out well for Cincinnati too as trading him to the Panthers would keep him in another conference.

For the Titans, a move to Tennessee would reunite Higgins with his former offensive coordinator, Brian Callahan, who should be excited given his reported availability.
