  • CIN Wide Receiver #1
    Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
    ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports the Bengals will “attempt” to re-sign Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and DE Trey Hendrickson to long-term contracts.
    “Whether Cincinnati can pull it off remains uncertain, but the team’s messaging behind the scenes is that it’s certainly going to try,” Fowler writes. The latest is that the Bengals will franchise tag Higgins in order to have time to get a deal done. Fowler adds that Chase is expected to be “looking to be the highest-paid wide receiver in the NFL -- possibly by a wide margin.” Hendrickson finished second in Defensive Player of the Year voting and was named first-team All-Pro for the first time in 2024 after leading the league with 17.5 sacks. The star Bengals edge player was disgruntled with his contract last offseason, and we imagine the gruntles have only grown as it was mostly left unresolved. The Bengals have a lot of room to work with and can generate more by pushing Joe Burrow’s cap hits into the future. It would absolutely be the best-case scenario for both the league and fantasy managers if Burrow, Chase, and Higgins all stayed in Cincinnati.
  • DEN Defensive Back #2
    Patrick Surtain II was named Defensive Player of the Year.
    Eight different players received first-place votes, but Surtain II took home 26 of those tallies. The 24-year-old corner was outstanding in 2024 with four interceptions, 11 passes passes defended and a forced fumble while helping the Broncos reach the postseason. Trey Hendrickson finished second with 11 first-place votes, with Myles Garrett finishing third with five of his own.
  • CIN Quarterback #9
    Speaking on Breakfast Ball, Joe Burrow said he would be willing to restructure his contract if it helps the Bengals retain core players.
    These core players, of course, are Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Trey Hendrickson, and perhaps, to a lesser extent, Mike Gesicki. Of the above-mentioned players, Higgins and Gesicki are the only players currently set to hit free agency, but the Bengals will need to work out a deal with Chase this off-season after putting off an extension with him last summer. Chase is a virtual lock to emerge as the highest-paid receiver in the league when all is said and done after he posted career highs in receptions (127), receiving yards (1,708), and receiving touchdowns (17), which also led all receivers in 2024. Whether or not a restructured deal for Burrow would create enough cap space to keep all key players in Cincinnati is to be determined, but the QB1 has been vocal about his desire to see the team keep its best players in tow for 2025 and beyond.
  • CIN Defensive End #91
    Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson (neck) is expected to play in Week 11 against the Chargers.
    Hendrickson won’t leave with the team for Los Angeles due to personal reasons but is expected to travel to Los Angeles on his own on Saturday. The veteran defensive end was a DNP on Thursday but is expected to play through a neck injury that was bugging him earlier this season. Hendrickson is on pace for another elite season and is currently sitting on 11 sacks through his first 10 games.
  • CIN Defensive End #91
    Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson (neck/back) is expected to play in Week 5 against the Ravens.
    A neck stinger forced Hendrickson from play in Week 4 but he was able to fully participate in Friday’s practice this week. The Bengals are also expected to return DT B.J. Hill, who missed Weeks 3 and 4 with a hamstring strain.
  • CIN Defensive End #91
    Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson has been declared out of Week 4’s game against the Panthers with a neck injury.
    Hendrickson was blocked into his teammate, Sam Hubbard, and his neck hit Hubbard directly in his chest. Hendrickson was down on the field for about five minutes with trainers around him and other Bengals players on one knee, so it was a scary moment. Thankfully, Hendrickson was able to walk off under his own power, but he was immediately ruled out, which is not a great sign for his availability going forward. He has been far-and-away the Bengals’ best player on defense this season.
  • CIN Defensive End #91
    Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson is participating in voluntary workouts despite his trade request.
    The Bengals posted a video of Hendrickson participating in drills on Monday. The veteran pass rusher, who totaled 17.5 sacks last season, is hoping for a long-term extension from the Bengals or a trade to a team that is willing to give him said deal. In three seasons with the Bengals, Hendrickson has totaled 39.5 sacks and has been voted to the Pro Bowl in each of those three seasons. Hendrickson, 29, signed a one-year extension last offseason to remain with the team through 2025 but is likely looking to capitalize on what could be his last big contract. He’ll be entering his age 32 season by the time he hits the open market, and is more than deserving of a deal befitting a top pass rusher.
  • CIN Defensive End #91
    The Athletic’s Paul Dehner reports the Bengals “have zero interest” in trading Trey Hendrickson.
    Hendrickson, 29, is reportedly considering retirement if the Bengals don’t meet his trade demands. We’ll see if anything materializes on that front, but as Dehner points out, the Bengals “are trying to win the Super Bowl this year, not deal stars.” Hendrickson and star wide receiver Tee Higgins are both looking for either long-term extensions from the Bengals or trades to teams that are willing to give them said extension. Hendrickson totaled 17.5 sacks last season and is among the league’s best pass rushers. While he’s more than deserving of a long-term deal, it doesn’t seem like the Bengals are interested in handing out that money, especially with the bill set to come due for Ja’Marr Chase.
  • CIN Defensive End #91
    The Enquirer’s Kelsey Conway reports Bengals EDGE Trey Hendrickson is considering retirement, in addition to his trade request.
    Hendrickson requested a trade from the Bengals, but as Conway reports, he is hoping to get a long-term deal done with the team. If not, he is also considering retirement in addition to his trade request. A retirement consideration may just be part of Hendrickson and his agent’s play to get a long-term deal as the 29-year-old is coming off three straight Pro Bowls. The Bengals now have both Hendrickson and WR Tee Higgins asking for long-term deals. With the draft so close, the trade requests could loom large.
  • CIN Defensive End #91
    ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Bengals EDGE Trey Hendrickson has requested a trade.
    Hendrickson is set to make $15 million this season before hitting free agency in 2025. He has been looking for an extension from the Bengals, but the two sides have yet to reach an agreement. Any trade for Hendrickson would have to include a new deal for the elite pass-rusher. Hendrickson tallied an absurd 17.5 sacks in 2023 despite playing through several injuries. He is more than deserving of a new deal and could be traded by the Bengals on draft night.
