The Cincinnati Bengals have been actively engaging in trade discussions for star pass rusher Trey Hendrickson for weeks, league sources said. Hendrickson, 30, has been present but not participating in the Bengals’ training camp practices as he seeks a contract extension. He has one year, $16 million remaining on the deal he signed in 2023.

According to a new report, the Cincinnati Bengals are actively listening to trade offers for All-Pro defensive end Trey Hendrickson. The report comes from NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, who added the following: "It’s unclear if the NFL sack leader will be playing elsewhere in 2025, and a trade will be a real challenge. But time will tell."

According to Sports Illustrated senior NFL writer Albert Breer, the Bengals have received trade offers and are seeking a defensive player and a draft pick in return. Breer added that the Bengals have offered Hendrickson a contract that has a “massive” annual value, but it does not have the guarantees that Hendrickson is seeking.
