Duke Tobin Weighs in on Possibility of Cincinnati Bengals Trading Trey Hendrickson. Will the Bengals consider trading their star pass rusher?

The Cincinnati Bengals want edge rusher Trey Hendrickson back, but the high-profile signings looming on the other side of the ball complicate that goal.

The New Orleans Saints, coached by Sean Payton at the time, picked Hendrickson in the third round of the 2017 NFL draft out of FAU. He spent the first four years of his career with the Saints before joining the Bengals as a free agent in 2021.

The Cincinnati Bengals have said the right things when it comes to Trey Hendrickson's future with the team this offseason. But until something actually happens, outside noise will dominate the conversation.

How will negotiations play out with Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Trey Hendrickson? Hendrickson, in particular, will be interesting to watch. He has a year left on his deal, but he has stated essentially he wants to sign an extension or get traded.
