The Cincinnati Bengals had a wild run into the realm of success. The franchise has flourished since Joe Burrow took over, and the underdogs became the most feared franchises. Not just Burrow, but the franchise has major draws like Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. The offseason is circling free agency drama, but the athletes seem unbothered as they sail around and party with their friends in Miami waters.
This year’s free agency has the Bengals under the radar. The franchise needs to figure out on keeping its top guys. Cin City lost Safety Jessie Bates III as the Atlanta Falcons signed him to a four-year, $64M deal.

Ja’Marr Chase seems unbothered with the drams he is surrounding. The Bengals WR recently received threats from his ex-girlfriend, and the mother is his kids. In a now-deleted post from Instagram, she threatened to share some videos that could plunge his career into the downright ugly.
Chase and Higgins are two top draws in the offseason. The WR1 is still in the midst of his rookie deal. But Tee Higgins is entering his contract’s final year. The free agency, just as Patrick Mahomes predicted, is wild already. But several athletes have proved their worth to rally the franchise towards Super Bowl glory.
