\"Trey<\/p>\n

CINCINNATI (AP) \u2014 Defensive end Trey Hendrickson and the Cincinnati Bengals remain deadlocked on progress toward a new deal or finding a new team.<\/p>\n

Hendrickson, who led the NFL with 17 1\/2 sacks last season, released a statement to ESPN on Monday saying there has been no communication between his representatives or the organization since the NFL draft two weeks ago.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe offers prior to the draft did not reflect the vision we shared and were promised last offseason if I continued to play at a high level,\u201d Hendrickson said. “Coaches are aware of these past conversations. Rather than using collaboration to get us to a point to bring me home to the team, THEY are no longer communicating. I have been eagerly awaiting a resolution of this situation, but that\u2019s hard to do when there is no discussion and an evident lack of interest in reaching mutual goals.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hendrickson was an All-Pro selection last season. He received permission from the Bengals to seek a trade in March, but no progress has been made. Hendrickson also requested a trade last year before the NFL draft, but the Bengals did not grant the request.<\/p>\n

Hendrickson’s 57 sacks since joining the Bengals in 2021 are third most in the league over the past four seasons. He signed with Cincinnati after four seasons with New Orleans.<\/p>\n

The Bengals were 9-8 last season and missed the playoffs for the second straight season. They hired Al Golden as defensive coordinator after finishing 25th in total defense.<\/p>\n

Increasing Hendrickson’s frustration is the Bengals signed wide receivers Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins to lucrative extensions in March.<\/p>\n

\"Browns<\/p>\n

Chase\u2019s $161 million contract made him the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL, and Higgins\u2019 $115 million deal made him one of the league\u2019s top 10 highest-paid receivers.<\/p>\n

Bengals executive vice president Katie Blackburn said during the league meetings in late March that “he\u2019s still a Bengal. It\u2019s just something that we\u2019ll keep working through.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cincinnati drafted Texas A&M defensive end Shemar Stewart with the 17th overall pick, but he is seen more as a run defender as a rookie while honing his pass rushing skills. Stewart led the Aggies with 39 quarterback pressures last season but had only 1 1\/2 sacks.<\/p>\n
