The Bengals of Cincinnati undoubtedly missed the playoffs last season because of their defense, but it does not seem that the front office sees an emergency to repair it.
The reports indicate that the team gave Trey Hendrickson, who led the NFL in the bags last season, the permission to seek a profession.
The 30 -year -old recorded a career summit of 17½ bags during the 2024 season, but the Bengals clearly indicated that, despite their defensive misfortunes, they want to keep the Ja’mar Chase and Tee Higgins receptors, which should both be expensive.

Higgins, meanwhile, received the Bengal franchise label, and the two parties work towards a long -term agreement.
Joe Burrow was in the MVP conversation, leading the NFL with 4,918 yards and 43 affected. He finished fourth in the MVP vote, and 2,619 of these sites that were distributed were distributed in Chase and Higgins. It could have been more if Higgins had not missed five games.
