CINCINNATI -- Cincinnati Bengals wide receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins have agreed to terms on the long-term extensions they have wanted for years.
Chase agreed to a four-year, $161 million deal that includes $112 million guaranteed. The annual average of $40.25 million sets an NFL record for the highest average annual salary for a non-quarterback, surpassing the previous $40 million mark set by the Cleveland Browns' Myles Garrett. Higgins, who had already been given the franchise tag, landed a four-year, $115 million deal that is guaranteed for the first two years.
