Tee Higgins requests trade after franchise tagging
Tee Higgins has requested a trade from the Cincinnati Bengals after extensions talks have ceased since last year and receiving the franchise tag earlier this offseason.
Fantasy Impact
According to Schefter, Higgins wants to remain in Cincy but after no talks of an extension have materialized, he wants to find a new home instead of playing on the franchise tag. This is huge news to the wide receiver market and no doubt teams around the league will be calling Cincinnati about their young star.

Kendrick Bourne returning to Patriots on three-year deal
The New England Patriots and WR Kendrick Bourne have come to terms on a three-year deal worth up to $33 million.
Fantasy Impact
A few days before ultimately signing back with the Patriots, Bourne said he would prefer to return to New England in 2024, and the team got the deal done shortly after. Halfway through last season, Bourne tore his ACL, but he said he plans to be ready to go by training camp. He may be off to a slow start in 2024 because of the injury, and he’ll be adjusting to a new man under center as well with Mac Jones now in Jacksonville.
