'Teams Are Gonna Call': Bengals’ Rumored Asking Price for Trey Hendrickson Trade Revealed

Reports indicate that they could ask for a young player who can contribute immediately, in addition to a mid-round draft pick. This strategy reflects the team’s desire to both secure value for a key player and build for the future, especially as they navigate a challenging season without their starting quarterback, Joe Burrow.

Hendrickson’s performance has made him an attractive target for teams looking to enhance their defensive capabilities. With four sacks already this season and a history of success, he would bring immediate impact to any defense. His track record includes two consecutive seasons with 17.5 sacks, making him one of the league’s premier edge rushers.

While Cincinnati has not officially confirmed its willingness to trade Hendrickson, the increasing interest from other teams suggests they may be open to offers. The trade deadline, set for November 4, could prompt a flurry of activity if Cincinnati continues to struggle. The decision to trade Hendrickson could hinge on their performance in the coming weeks.

Cincinnati Bengals Reveal Price for Trey Hendrickson Before Trade Deadline

Cincinnati is reportedly seeking a return for Hendrickson before the trade deadline. This is detailed more in an article by Paul Kasabian for Bleacher Report.

Cincinnati Bengals edge-rusher Trey Hendrickson is expected to be a “big-time trade target” this season, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network on Thursday evening.

“As far as what it might take, what I am told is a young player who would help the Bengals this year and into the future and a future mid-round pick, if the Bengals are even willing to do it.”

As the franchise weighs its options, the potential move could reshape their roster for the future. If they do decide to trade Hendrickson, it will signify a shift in strategy as they look to rebuild and reallocate resources.

Hendrickson’s status as a trade target highlights the uncertainty surrounding Cincinnati’s season. With teams lining up for his services, Cincinnati’s decision on whether to keep or trade him will be pivotal as they navigate the rest of the year.
