\"trey<\/p>\n

After being the highlight of the NFL offseason, Cincinnati Bengals star pass rusher Trey Hendrickson will likely holdout which could signal a trade during training camp this summer. According to several reports, the team is still at a stalemate with the best pass rusher in the league, which may lead to a potential holdout, and that could cause a lot of turmoil already for an organization that\u2019s finding ways to give him a blockbuster contract. It won\u2019t be easy, but there\u2019s been some positive news already that the two have been in communication after the NFL Draft, and the only implication is how far those conversations went. However, it doesn\u2019t mean the talks were negative as well; it\u2019s more of a waiting game of what might happen in the coming months before the 2025 regular season.<\/p>\n

The Bengals need to speed up the process of contract negotiations if they want to retain the All-Pro edge rusher. Originally selected in the third round of the 2017 NFL Draft, the former Florida Atlantic product kept this defensive line afloat, recording almost 18 sacks along with 46 tackles and six passes defensed. Hendrickson is entering the final year of his current contract, so it looks like the Bengals are still on the clock even though the NFL Draft is behind everyone. With a new defensive coordinator, Al Golden, the Bengals could risk being without their best pass rusher out there on the field as they install a new scheme.<\/p>\n

If the Bengals can\u2019t find a way to retain him even after reworking Geno Stone\u2019s contract, these three teams could offer Cincinnati a deal they can\u2019t turn down.<\/p>\n

Breaking: Bengals Star Pass Rusher Trey Hendrickson \u201cLikely\u201d To Holdout, Trade Could Come Soon?<\/h2>\n

3 Best Fits<\/h3>\n

Washington Commanders<\/h4>\n

The Washington Commanders have been linked to the star pass rusher ever since he was granted a trade this offseason. However, it\u2019ll be up to the Commanders to decide what type of offer they want to give to Hendrickson, as he could be the prominent NFL athlete who can change the culture forever in Washington. They\u2019ve done away with drafting quarterback Jayden Daniels and building a high-caliber offense for him to succeed. With that, it makes sense that Washington would trade for Hendrickson since they\u2019re trying to maximize Daniels\u2019 contract before his deal is up.<\/p>\n

After losing sack leader Dante Fowler Jr. to the Dallas Cowboys, the presence of Hendrickson would be an enormous upgrade. Bobby Wagner may be coming back, but his prime days as a pass rusher are behind him. Hendrickson should be their last crown jewel piece for a Super Bowl.<\/p>\n

Los Angeles Chargers<\/h4>\n

Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Chargers should be desperate to upgrade the pass-rushing unit. Since they lost Poona Ford after he no longer fit the bill, the team needs a superstar talent to fill the shoes when Khalil Mack eventually retires next year. Da\u2019Shawn Hand and Teair Tart can\u2019t single-handedly carry this unit, and Hendrickson should be the old-school athlete that head coach Jim Harbaugh should keep his eye on.<\/p>\n

Carolina Panthers<\/h4>\n

However, the Carolina Panthers have done a phenomenal job upgrading their defense after spending back-to-back offseasons building an offense for quarterback Bryce Young. They\u2019ve decided to release veteran edge rusher Jadeveon Clowney, and it\u2019s hard to imagine they won\u2019t trade for a better option. Despite signing Tershawn Wharton, they need a man on the outside end to complete the package behind him and Derrick Brown. This could be Hendrickson, who has a lot of years ahead of him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
