Trey Hendrickson to Colts: Reunion with Old Coordinator

Trey Hendrickson is hitting free agency after the Cincinnati Bengals passed on the franchise tag and he made it clear he was moving on. ESPN analyst Matt Bowen predicts he'll sign with the Indianapolis Colts where he could make a big impact on their defense. The main draw is a reunion with Lu Anorumo. Hendrickson's old defensive coordinator from Cincinnati who now runs the Colts defense. That connection dates back to last off season when Trey talks first surfaced. Meanwhile, another familiar face, former Bengals defensive line coach Marion Habby just joined the Colts staff too. This setup could help Hendrickson thrive opposite young star Liyatu Latu. Hendrickson led the league with 17.5 sacks in 2024 despite missing time with an injury last season. At 31 years old he's still got a strong market though his price tag might be steep.

Back in Cincinnati, the Bengals plan to use the cap space on multiple defensive players, banking on young talents like Shamar Stewart and Miles, Murphy.
