Tee Higgins is a top free agent

Tee Higgins is a top free agent

Clemson repped the moniker wide receiver U for some time, producing some of the top wide receivers in college football and the NFL.

A player that epitomizes the moniker is NFL star and former Tiger Tee Higgins, who went from being one of the best wide receivers in college football to one of the best wide receivers in the NFL. Higgins is a fantastic talent and could even be considered underrated by some. 

CBS Sports recently released their rankings for the Top 25 offensive free agents for 2024, with Tee Higgins ranking No.2 on the list. He is the highest-rated non-quarterback, with only Kirk Cousins ranked ahead of him.

Higgins dealt with injuries and the absence of Joe Burrow this past season, but we have seen that he has the capability to be a No. 1 or No. 2 option in a really good passing game. He only recently turned 25 years old so he likely hasn’t even hit his prime years yet.

Injuries were a big part of Higgins’ season, with the star wide receiver having career lows with 42 receptions, 656 yards, and five touchdowns. He only appeared in 12 games, another career low for the former Tiger.

While it wasn’t Higgins’s best season, it’s difficult to argue against the talent and what we’ve seen from him when he was healthy. In his short NFL career, Higgins has recorded 257 receptions for 3,684 yards and 24 touchdowns. He will be one of the hottest names in free agency, with wide receiver needs being drastic for multiple teams and the Bengals possibly not being able to pay Higgins the contract he’s earned.
