Trey Hendrickson is furious he doesn't have a new deal, and that is leaving the Washington Commanders hoping for a trade.

It's Time for Cincinnati Bengals to Make Decision About Trey Hendrickson's Future. The Bengals can't have unnecessary distractions in training camp this season.

The Cincinnati Bengals are stuck in limbo with superstar defensive end Trey Hendrickson, who is adamant he's not playing for the team in 2025 without a new deal.

The Bengals used the No. 17 pick in last month's NFL draft to select Texas A&M edge rusher Shemar Stewart, potentially preparing for life without Hendrickson. The 30-year-old told reporters, "Circumstances changed post-draft. They’re starting to change very openly."

The Lions are viewed as a team that has a need at the defensive end position, and Hendrickson was a First Team All-Pro last year after recording 17.5 sacks. Detroit already has one of the game's best young players at the position in Aidan Hutchinson, and the proposition of adding another would give them one of the league's best pass-rush duos.

Hendrickson led the NFL in sacks last season but is still far from signing an extension with Cincinnati. Here's the latest on the situation.
