The Cincinnati Bengals have chosen not to slap the franchise tag on defensive end, Trey Hendrickson, clearing the way for him to hit free agency. Unrestricted this off season, Hendrickson has anchored the Bengals line as a full-time starter for the past five seasons. He got his start with the New Orleans Saints, who picked him in the third round of the 2017 draft, where he played his first four, years. Over his NFL career, Hendrickson boasts 236 tackles, 81 sacks, and 16 passes knocked down, stats that will draw plenty. Of suitors, when free agency opens, team insiders say the Bengals balked at his salary ask and skipped a long-term extension last year, signaling they're prepared to part ways after, investing in other defensive pieces, now entering his 10th pro season at age 32. Hendrickson shops for a fresh start, while Cincinnati eyes the draft and market to rebuild
