The former No. 4 overall pick ended his fourth year with 47 catches, 602 receiving yards and four touchdowns. Those aren’t bad numbers for a tight end, but they’re less than ideal for someone drafted ahead of Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase.

In the third round, Cincinnati lands Iowas State wide receiver Jayden Higgins. This is notable, as Tee Higgins could be on his way out. Jayden is 6-foot-4, 215 pounds -- so he could be a seamless replacement for Tee. The Iowa State star caught 87 passes which went for 1,183 yards and nine touchdowns during his 2024 college football campaign.

It is pretty clear the Cincinnati Bengals have multiple positions to address this offseason from the coaching staff to the roster. It is also safe to assume that a large majority of the focus this offseason will be on the defensive revamp in Cincinnati.
