Overview

• Hendrickson did not report to Bengals training camp on July 22 and shared that he is working out in Jacksonville.
• He received two contract proposals in the past day but turned both down over the lack of multi-year guarantees.
• The 30-year-old faces $50,000 in daily fines for each missed camp practice, with penalties accruing since his first absence.
• Owner Mike Brown and director of player personnel Duke Tobin insist the team won’t trade its leading pass rusher and remains in active talks.
• Cincinnati’s defense prepares under new coordinator Al Golden without its sack leader as his holdout underscores rising guarantee demands for elite edge rushers.
