Bengals WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh is headed for free agency, and there are reports from NFL Network that a couple of teams seem to have the early lead for his services, including the Ravens, Dolphins and Eagles. Here is the report:

Now that the Bengals have punched WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh’s ticket out of town, speculation can begin on where he will land. It likely will be with one of six wide receiver-needy teams: the Seattle Seahawks, San Francisco 49ers, Tennessee Titans, Baltimore Ravens, Miami Dolphins or Philadelphia Eagles. All of those teams are looking to upgrade at wide receiver. And all of them could be active in the free-agent market. Each of those teams would appeal to Houshmandzadeh, who is not expected to return to Cincinnati.
