A potential Trey Hendrickson trade from the Cincinnati Bengals is becoming a greater reality with each passing day.

As of this writing, the Cincinnati Bengals remain highly unlikely to trade star defensive end Trey Hendrickson. While the contract standoff doesn’t sound any closer to ending despite Hendrickson being in town, both parties have plenty of time between now and training camp to get something done.

Back during voluntary workouts Hendrickson had expressed that things were starting to get personal. These sentiments seem to be echoed by the team’s most recent first-round pick, Shemar Stewart, who told the media that the Bengals prioritize winning contract arguments over winning games.
