## Resource

DJ Turner’s elite 2023 season—ranking seventh in coverage grade—has fans and analysts demanding a new contract, but the Bengals are stuck on one big question: what’s his true market value? With projections pointing to a $21M annual deal and a possible $85M, four-year contract, the team’s notorious last-minute approach adds pressure. Past mistakes, like delaying Ja’Marr Chase’s extension (who then won the Triple Crown), loom large, especially with guaranteed money being a sticking point. Complicating matters is Dax Hill, Turner’s potential counterpart, who’s yet to be officially named starter and shares an agent—creating a tangled web of negotiations. The smart move? Lock down both players together, avoid another costly regret, and stop waiting until the last minute. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
