Top pass rusher Trey Hendrickson may be headed out for the Bengals, a rival team to the Browns.
This summer, Cincinnati is handling trade demands from a number of important players.
For the most part, the Cleveland Browns, the Northern football team from Ohio, their summer has been drama-free. There seems to be some trouble in paradise for Cleveland’s in-state rival, the Cincinnati Bengals, five hours south down I-71.
Trey Hendrickson, the leading pass rusher for Cincinnati, became the most recent Bengals player to ask for a trade outside of the city on Wednesday. Hendrickson wants greater long-term stability with his contract position, according to reports with intimate ties to the matter. The 30-year-old will receive a base salary of $15 million as well as a $200k roster bonus for the upcoming season.
Originally intended to stay with the team through 2025, he signed a one-year extension last summer, and he is currently in his second-to-last season with them. Hendrickson appears to be changing his mind about leaving Cincinnati now.
Hendrickson’s contract is sixth among his pass-rushing counterparts in terms of average annual value, but it is ninth in terms of the overall amount of money he will make in 2024. After a season in which he had 17.5 sacks, Hendrickson shattered the franchise mark most sacks in a single season, which he had previously achieved in 2021 (14). Only T.J. Watt of the Steelers had a higher total in the NFL last season than that one.
Hendrickson has become as one of the league’s most reliable pass-rushing threats during the course of the previous three seasons. He has participated in 48 Bengals games over that time, recording 39.5 sacks, 109 total tackles, 16 for a loss, and 25 quarterback hits.
and made nine fumbles happen.
This offseason, Hendrickson has become the second prominent player to call for a trade due to their present contract predicament in Cincinnati. No. 2 wideout Tee Higgins requested to be moved back in March after he and the organization were unable to reach an agreement on a new long-term contract. Higgins recently acknowledged that he plans to return to the Bengals for the upcoming year. That implies he will probably spend the entire 2024 season wearing the franchise tag, which has a value of up to $21.8 million.
