The New England Patriots are looking to support their new franchise quarterback, Drake Maye, with talented wide receivers. Tee Higgins of the Cincinnati Bengals has been identified as a potential target as he becomes a free agent after the 2024 season.

Albert Breer notes that Higgins, currently on a franchise tag and recovering from an injury, could become available through trade or free agency. Other options include emerging players from the 2022 draft class or veterans, though the latter group may not be as enticing due to age.

Potential trade targets include Chris Olave, Jameson Williams, Drake London, and Christian Watson. The team has shown interest in younger talent, as illustrated by their pursuit of 49ers receiver Brandon Aiyuk, which indicates a strategy focused on long-term offensive improvements.
