Trey Hendrickson - who claims he's been lied to by a Bengals front office that promised he'd be taken care of - wants to get his. And that is nothing new ... and that has nothing to do with Joe Burrow.

One could debate for a long time whether the Bengals will care at all about what the Steelers do with T.J. Watt or otherwise. The fact Hendrickson was permitted to seek a trade and couldn’t find one, though, continues to hint that the Bengals hold most of the leverage, regardless.
