Last year, the Bengals gave defensive end Trey Hendrickson a one-year extension with $21 million in new money. This year, Hendrickson wants a new contract or a trade.
To no surprise, the Bengals aren’t inclined to trade him.
Via Paul Dehner Jr. of TheAthletic.com, the Bengals have “zero interest in trading Hendrickson to a new team.”
Whether they’ll adjust his contract is another issue. He’s due to make $14.8 million in 2024 and $15.8 million in 2025. That’s below half of the current market, and he had 17.5 sacks in 2023.
The Bengals should consider fixing the situation.
Hendrickson supposedly is considering retiring.
And, yes, no new deal can be done until the one-year anniversary of his last one. That’s just three months away. If the Bengals made the wink-nod commitment now to do the deal later, that would surely be good enough for Hendrickson.
