Bengals to Gauge Trey Hendrickson's Market at Scouting Combine
The Cincinnati Bengals plan to gather information about impending free-agent defensive end Trey Hendrickson's market at the NFL scouting combine in late February in Indianapolis, according to Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer. It seems likely that Hendrickson will end up walking in free agency, but there is also a possibility that Cincy looks to place the franchise tag on the 31-year-old veteran and then attempt to trade him. That scenario is unlikely, especially since Hendrickson played in only seven games in 2025 and ended the year on Injured Reserve with a hip/pelvis injury that required core-muscle surgery. The Bengals used the franchise tag on him last year, so tagging him a second straight season would cost them $30.2 milion in 2026. Despite his injury, Hendrickson will have plenty of suitors if he makes it to the open market after having back-to-back 17.5-sack seasons in 2023 and 2024.
