I&#8217;m hoping it doesn&#8217;t come to that. I truthfully will put my hope in that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_a4156dqb6\">Is Hendrickson willing to play on his current deal?<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_c0ms0y6kk\">&#8220;No,&#8221; he said bluntly.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_h9y172vy3\">We know the Bengals made Hendrickson an offer this offseason. Maybe multiple. What&#8217;re they offering the NFL sack leader? Mike Florio shared some insight.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_b9w47byhk\">&#8220;Hendrickson is due to make $16 million this year,&#8221; Florio wrote. &#8220;The Bengals, we\u2019ve heard, have offered roughly $28 million per year. Whatever the amount (and, as importantly, the structure), he wants more.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_86ubzqss4\">Wanting more than $28 million per year makes sense for Hendrickson. The top of the defensive end market has shifted in recent months. Despite that, Florio acknowledges that the Bengals have the leverage in any negotiations with their All-Pro pass rusher.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_rh2jonufw\">&#8220;Hendrickson has real value, but he doesn\u2019t have much leverage,&#8221; Florio wrote. &#8220;His options are simple, and few. One, take the team\u2019s best offer on a new deal. Two, play for $16 million and become a free agent in 2026 (unless they tag him). Three, hold out and hope the Bengals will cave.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_3537hq7ou\">Historically, the Bengals don&#8217;t cave in these types of situations. There&#8217;s no reason why anyone, including Hendrickson, should expect them to do that now.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_xk9gsrc3u\">Would Hendrickson really pass on an extension that bumped his salary up to $28 million in 2025? It depends on how many years the Bengals would add beyond this season and the guaranteed money in the deal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trey Hendrickson is unhappy with his current contract.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":23319,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23318","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cincinnati-bengals"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>BREAKING : National NFL Personality Shares Insight on Bengals&#039;
