Tumultuous would be an understatement for former Clemson wide receiver Tee Higgins’ contract discussions over the last two seasons and now he’ll have a new agent representing him.

Higgins is currently playing under the franchise tag for the Cincinnati Bengals and putting together a strong season with 45 catches for 581 yards and five touchdowns over eight games. The Cincinnati Enquirer’s Kelsey Conway reported that he is parting ways with David Mulugheta, who also represents former Tigers Deshaun Watson and AJ Terrell.

Tee Higgins and NFL agent David Mulugheta have parted ways, a source told me.

They are no longer working together. Higgins is currently playing on the franchise tag and will be seeking a long-term deal in the offseason. @Enquirer

This news comes at a key time as Higgins’ future in Cincinnati remains in limbo. He’s been looking for a long-term deal, and new representation could get the ball rolling.
