He does seem different from his LSU days. He doesn't seem that in to football lately.

He can use the Bengals as an excuse all he wants but he seems way more interested in going to celeb parties and trying to be like Odell and hooking up with Instagram whores than being a football player at this point in his life

Shouldn’t have been so adamant about re-signing Tee. They should’ve invested that money in defense.

STFU. The guy works as hard as anyone in the league.

How exactly do you know that? You follow him and every player in the NFL around every day to compare their schedules or something?

Should have advocated for better OL or defense. Money was wasted on Higgins. You already have chase.

I’d imagine constantly rehabbing and getting back just to not play meaningful football will do that. Hoping he has some healthy seasons to come

Bengals haven't had a defense in 20 years. They lose because their defense cannot stop anyone. The Bengals can score 30 points a game and their defense will give up 40 a game. That is the issue.

Shouldn't have signed the extension with that shite franchise.

I kind of wish he'd do less of that, but you have to give him credit for coming back from his surgery this season and playing out the remainder of the schedule. I don't think anyone would have begrudged him just hanging it up this season after that injury, but he busted his arse to get back to his team and play. I think the Buffalo game was a back breaker, specifically that his play basically was the reason they lost. It was just shite luck on a couple of plays, but I bet he was thinking they could run the table for the rest of the year and make the playoffs.

It's unfortunate he's there. And yes he has millions. But he really wants to be a champion in the NFL. That's why it's so deflating for him. As everyone can see.. I would love to see him in a great situation.

That is his own damn fault. He knew what kind of organization they were when he signed the extension.


He should’ve held out and forced to trade or played out as rookie contract.

He could’ve chosen where he wanted to go.


He needs to suck it up now and be a big boy and play football.

Because of what his peers and teammates have said about him, both in college and with the Bengals. They all say the same thing, that his preparation and work ethic are as good as anyone.

He’ll be a Ram when Matt Stafford retires. Playing in Sean McVay’s offense will liven him up.

Would likely prefer to just be a fashion model at this point in his career.

He deserves better ownership. I really hope to see him playing for a contender soon. No way he stays past his current contract.
