The Cincinnati Bengals and star defensive end Trey Hendrickson may have hit a standstill in their contract negotiations.

"The deal is in place for Trey Hendrickson and the Bengals but there's a disagreement over the guaranteed money," Schefter said. "... It's a big disagreement so far." Schefter goes on to say that it could be as much as a $10 million gap between Cincinnati and its star pass rusher.

The relationship between the Cincinnati Bengals and EDGE rusher Trey Hendrickson has been dwindling in recent months after the long-time Bengals pass rusher made it public that he's expecting a big pay day before the start of the 2025 season.
