The Bengals are in discussions with Trey Hendrickson regarding a long-term contract extension, with reports suggesting some optimism for his future with the team. Hendrickson, who missed the entire offseason program and faced fines for skipping the mandatory minicamp, expressed his grievances about communication issues while attending a workout in street clothes. He has stated he will not play this season under his current contract, which includes a base salary of $15.8 million and a cap hit of $18.6 million in 2025, despite being a four-time Pro Bowler and leading the league in sacks last season.
