Ted Karras Offers Cincinnati Bengals Locker Room Perspective on Lingering Shemar Stewart, Trey Hendrickson Contract Situations

The Cincinnati Bengals made official Tuesday the release of linebacker Germaine Pratt, who had been with the team since being drafted in 2019 and was one of the longest-tenured players in Cincinnati.

The Cincinnati Bengals entered the 2025 NFL offseason aiming to secure three of their top players with long-term contracts: wide receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, plus pass rusher Trey Hendrickson.

Cincinnati Bengals star edge rusher Trey Hendrickson is not showing up for mandatory minicamp as he seeks a new deal.

It's early June in the NFL. An established veteran star missing a few days of minicamp isn't really that big of a deal. But it might be a big deal when they're staying away looking for a new contract.

The Cincinnati Bengals will be without one of their top playmakers on the defensive side of the ball during this week's mandatory minicamp. Star pass rusher Trey Hendrickson won't attend the team's mandatory minicamp as he seeks a new contract, according to CBS Sports' Jonathan Jones.
