Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson has requested a trade from the team, following a similar request from wide receiver Tee Higgins earlier this year. Hendrickson, a three-time Pro Bowler, is reportedly unhappy with the long-term contract extension offered by the Bengals and is seeking a more lucrative deal. The Bengals have expressed reluctance to trade the star pass rusher but may consider it to save cap space. Hendrickson’s departure would leave a significant hole in the Bengals’ defense after a disappointing 2022 season that ended without a playoff berth.
