Bengals Mike Brown and coaching staff discuss the upcoming season
Bengals Mike Brown and coaching staff discuss the upcoming season during their annual media luncheon.
As Cincinnati Bengals training camp begins, so does a holdout by Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson.
Hendrickson posted a photo from a Florida highway on Instagram as his teammates reported to camp.
The Bengals are required to fine Hendrickson $50,000 for each day of camp he misses. In addition, any preseason or regular-season game he misses would result in $877,777 of salary lost, according to Spotrac.
Hendrickson is under contract with the Bengals for another season, and would earn $16 million if there’s no extension. The Pittsburgh Steelers recently gave defensive star TJ Watt a three-year, $123 million extension with $108M guaranteed.
Hendrickson didn’t win the AP Defensive Player of the Year award last season despite leading the NFL with 17.5 sacks.
