If Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja’Marr Chase expected a new contract this year, he was probably disappointed yesterday. Bengals owner Mike Brown essentially said that he doesn’t anticipate completing a contract extension before Chase’s fourth season. Even still, he remained confident they would sign the wide receiver, who still has two years left on his contract.
“It’s not so likely that this is the good time to negotiate”, Brown said yesterday when asked about Ja’Marr Chase’s contract, via Ben Baby of ESPN. “The offseason is a better time for that and we’re going to try to keep focused on the football part”.
