Overview

  • The Bengals are seeking a first-round pick for Trey Hendrickson, per The Athletic, with the NFL trade deadline set for Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET.
  • Multiple contenders, including the Rams, 49ers, Lions, Colts and Eagles, have inquired about Bengals players such as Hendrickson, according to league reporting.
  • The Cowboys have checked on Hendrickson previously, and Jerry Jones said Dallas has already completed one trade and could make more before the deadline.
  • Teams are wary of surrendering a first-rounder for a pending free agent, and some hope Cincinnati will lower its price before the cutoff, per Dianna Russini.
  • Hendrickson missed Sunday’s game with a hip issue that is not expected to be long-term, and he posted 17.5 sacks in both 2023 and 2024.
