Also, and this is a bit off topic, but I've read that the Bengals may face a similar issue when the time comes to extend Burrow, Chase and possibly Higgins. Apparently Brown is one of the least wealthy NFL owners and isn't projected to have the cash flow to ink such large deals so close together.
I'm sure they'll figure it out, as the Raiders probably would/will if necessary, though.

I wouldn't count on the Bengals "figuring it out". Mike Brown doesn't' have a lot of cash but more importantly, he doesn't want to spend a lot of cash. Don't be surprised if they have to gut that team to pay Burrow and Chase and nobody else.
