The Cincinnati Bengals still have work to do if they are going to make receiver Ja'Marr Chase the sport's most expensive non-quarterback.

Cincinnati Bengals star wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase and the franchise remain "far apart" in contract extension talks, according to a report from Diana Russini of The Athletic. According to Russini, the Bengals are prioritizing an extension with Chase over teammate Tee Higgins.

The wide receiver room for the Cincinnati Bengals is one of the most fascinating position groups to follow this offseason. Already, it's making noise, with the team electing to hit Tee Higgins with the franchise tag for the second consecutive season.
