It’s starting to seem like Trey Hendrickson’s time in Cincinnati could be coming to an end.
According to Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Bengals are now entertaining trade offers for defensive end Trey Hendrickson as the two sides are at an “impasse” in contract extension negotiations.
Hendrickson has been a hold-in during training camp amidst those contract talks.
Rapoport added that any trade would “be expensive, likely with a young player and a future pick if possible” heading back to the Bengals.
According to NFL Insider Jordan Schultz, the Cleveland Browns, Carolina Panthers and Indianapolis Colts are among the teams who have shown early interest in trading for Hendrickson.
Hendrickson has been one of the best pass-rushers in the sport over the past five seasons, with 70.5 sacks in that time. He’s registered 17.5 sacks in each of the last two seasons and is a true difference-maker off the edge.
