That's just my take, though.

Whitworth definately felt hurt the way the Bengals handled things. And yes...Troy Blackburn was who texted the agent that the Bengals didn't value Whitworth at that much.

Those articles make it sound like the Bengals destroyed that relationship.

But, I do kind of get the Bengals take. Guys generally don't play at a Pro Bowl level past 35 years old. The strange side is that several teams apparently beat the Bengals offer.
