Bengals, Trey Hendrickson Agree To One-Year Deal Over Extension Dispute

The Bengals and Trey Hendrickson resolved a standoff over guaranteed money by scrapping extension talks and reworking his final year. Cincinnati gave the pass rusher a $14 million raise for 2025, avoiding long-term commitments. The compromise lets Hendrickson “focus fully” on a contract year while giving him freedom afterward, a model some execs say other teams may follow.
