The Bengals have a slightly worse roster than last season

But I think it still puts him "up in the air" because he could still be traded. Even the Bengals forcing him to play the last year of his contract i would consider to be making him a question mark at this point as while he's been a professional thru this he has said pay me or trade me.

The last time a player challenged the Bengals he ended up getting traded midseason. But, he was younger and staged a walk out. 

Trey can be mad and throw a temer tantrum, but he better stay professional if he wants another team to overpay the team for his services. Bengals own his contract. Bengals brought him in from Saints. He had 20 career sacks in 4 years. He missed 12 games his 2nd year in the league. Bengals gave him a huge raise and second contract.

Why are Bengals the bad guy if they choose to make a player honor his contract. Trey is not the first and won't be the last player forced to honor a deal.

But as I have said, find a team to give the Bengals a 1st and 3rd round pick and I think they would consider it. If he can't find that, maybe he is not as good as he thinks he is by other teas standards.
