CINCINNATI — The core talent in Cincinnati is getting older around Joe Burrow, as ESPN has the Bengals power ranked eighth among NFL teams for the future (2024-26 seasons).

The Bengals will likely let Tee Higgins walk in free agency next season.

"So far, so good for Joe Burrow in his recovery from a season-ending right wrist injury," Dan Graziano wrote. "This is probably the last season the Bengals will have both Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins running routes for him, but this is a broad-thinking and sharp-drafting front office that does as good a job as any in reloading when it decides to move on from a star."

Cincinnati checked in behind Kansas City, Baltimore, Buffalo, Detroit, Philadelphia, Houston, and San Francisco in the exercise.
