We have an expensive DE group now. And some really good depth to go with it.

I remember there being confusion as to whether Hendrickson was going to be a free agent after this year, may have been some different language in the contract or something? Either way, we have Hendrickson locked up for 3 more years. That is huge. He is an impact player.

According to Trey, he had discussions last year with the FO on getting an extension. He was grateful for allowing him to be with his wife during a hospital stay and workout on his own. Loves the team and loves Cincy.
