Told ya! He ain't playin' and he isnt your average 31 year old lineman. Even at 80% Trey is more productive than half the DEs in the league. He's got at least a couple of good years left. And in the right scheme and situation, maybe more. This is getting ready to be another Big Whit shit show.

The exact same could be said about Geno Atkins before the start of 2020 season that he "isn't your average 31 year old lineman. He had a monster year at age 30 just like Trey just did. Then look what happen. That is a lot of cap space for very little production and in the early 2020's they fortunately didn't have QB and 2 WR taking up over 1/3 of the entire salary cap and could absorb it better.

Age 30 - 10 sacks, 45 tackles, 13 TFL, 19 QB hits 16 games played 15.1 million.
Age 31 - 4.5 sacks, 47 tackles, 4 TFL, 10 QB hits 16 games played 14.6 million cap hit.
Age 32 - 0.0 sacks, 1 tackle, 0 TFL, 1 QB hit 8 games played, 14.1 million cap hit.
Age 33 - Out of the league and 5.2 million cap hit.

Father time is undefeated.

Then trade him. Get a 2nd or a 3rd and 5th etc.... but don't just sit on it and let it fester like one of Meat's butt blisters.

The Bengals are going to lose this PR battle HUGE. Even worse than Whitworth or Palmer. They just dont learn.

Exactly. It's not about who's right or who's wrong at this point. It's about the distraction this dispute is going to cause throughout training camp and possibly into the start of the season.

This should have been dealt with, one way or another, before the draft. Instead, it's going to linger on till September or beyond. Trade him for another defensive player and a mid-round pick in next year's draft. Minimize the damage and suck it up and move on.

Jay Morrison @ByJayMorrison
Asked by Paul Dehner Jr if he envisions any scenario where he plays this year in his current deal, Trey Hendrickson said “no”
Trey Hendrickson said there are unprovoked shark attacks and provoked ones.

He said his statement yesterday and the session today were "provoked" by Katie Blackburn's comments at the owners' meetings and Zac Taylor's text informing him he would be fined for skipping minicamp.

Hendrickson also said he has no issue with Ja'Marr and Tee getting their deals before him.

"I love those guys. I want every player on this team to get their value. They have the best quarterback on the planet to spin the ball, so I'd prioritize receivers myself. It is almost like building a fantasy dynasty."


Paul Dehner Jr. @pauldehnerjr
Trey Hendrickson just spent 25 minutes with us and had a lot to say and didn’t hold back. The word “disappointed” was used often.

Said his statements have been “provoked.”

Asked explicitly if he will play on the current deal: “No.”

Stay tuned, much more to come.

I do not blame the Bengals here. Trey signed his extension and he needs to accept that. He wants to have security for this family, I'm sure 17 million dollars should be more than enough to secure his family. Get over yourself Trey!

I agree with you, he signed a contract (and was quite happy to do so) and he should live up to it.

Like I said in an earlier post, it's no longer about who's right and who's wrong, it's about how the Bengals are handling the situation.

Which is poorly, and it's going to cause problems down the line. You watch.

The Bengals gave him the okay to seek out a trade and apparently didn't get that much interest. Teams are not exactly beating down the door for and old DE that even though he is great rushing the QB kind of sucks in run defense.

Cincinnati wants to host 2028 or 2029 draft...

From what I read from various sports writers, the Bengals received several offers but their asking price was too high.

Some even characterized it as "ridiculously high."

Heaven forbid they actually try to get something from the NFL sack leader last season.

I never heard what exactly, the Bengals were asking for.

But if indeed it was ridiculous, then you have to wonder if they were ever really serious about dealing him anyway.

Trey and his agent may have come to the same conclusion which would just add to their sh*tty attitude towards the team.
