Bengals Resist Trey Hendrickson Trade Overtures as Deadline Nears

Cincinnati is holding firm, citing playoff ambitions plus contract leverage.

Overview

  • ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports the Bengals have rebuffed inquiries and have no current plans to trade Trey Hendrickson.
  • The Cowboys, 49ers and Colts have shown interest, with Indianapolis viewed as a logical fit due to Lou Anarumo's presence.
  • Hendrickson has a hip issue that affected recent games, but it is not considered serious and he is expected to be full-go for the stretch run.
  • San Francisco addressed its pass rush by trading for Patriots defensive end Keion White and is still exploring additional help.
  • On a reworked one-year deal with the franchise tag available to Cincinnati, any move would likely be a short-term rental calculation before the Nov. 4 deadline.
