Tee Higgins appreciates Joe Burrow looking out for his Cincinnati Bengals' teammates while engaging in talks with the team about a long-term contract extension.

Higgins is in the final year of his rookie deal.

"Means a lot having a leader like him looking out for guys like us," Higgins said. "Obviously we talk about staying together for the long run. Hopefully, we can do that and get something negotiated to where they can keep all three of us."

Ja'Marr Chase will be up for a new deal after the 2023 season.
