Trey Hendrickson's Absence from Bengals Minicamp

This year, Trey Hendrickson, the star defensive end for the Bengals, will not attend the mandatory minicamp due to a contract dispute. His absence has become a topic of discussion as he faces a fine of $104,768 for missing camp.

Trey Hendrickson will not attend the Bengals minicamp, according to sources.

Hendrickson, who led the NFL in sacks last season, has a contract that is set to expire but is seeking a new deal with long-term commitments. He has one year remaining on his current contract worth $16 million.

He has already stated that he will not agree to play under the old contract. The Bengals are not rushing to raise their offer, as Hendrickson will turn 31 in December, and the team has doubts about his effectiveness against running attacks.

Quarterback Joe Burrow expressed support for Hendrickson, noting that his absence will impact the younger players who will receive more playing time in practice. Burrow also mentioned that he wishes Hendrickson would remain with the team.

Hendrickson recently expressed his frustration with the situation, indicating that his position is not being taken seriously. The team also has a new first-round pick, defensive end Shemar Stewart, who has yet to sign a contract and missed training.

Attention is now focused on whether a deal can be reached before the start of training camp on July 23.
