He just realized that he signed a bad deal well under market value, and wants something closer to what other high end pass rushers have been getting this offseason (Josh Allen, Brian Burns, Danielle Hunter, etc). Who he should really be mad at is his agent, not the team.
Lewis even said that the Bengals told him they would consider another extension after this season...which seems reasonable, IMO. So, it's not like they were opposed to extending Trey again or refusing to talk about it...which makes Lewis' going public demanding a trade such a weird move, especially coming after an extension 9 months earlier. Just a poorly played hand that wasn't needed and looked very silly from an optics standpoint.
