And the 16 million he was supposed to get this year increased with an offer of 28 million. He signed his 60 million dollar deal, then redid it and got an extra 21 million, which he now wants to do and turned down the 12 million dollar raise they offered him for this year. There seems to be two parallel, yet conflicting, trains of thought going on in this and other threads. On one hand, the Bengals should sign players early to save money when the market goes up, and on the other hand, the Bengals should just let players demand new contracts every year they are here if they don't feel like they are making enough.
Quote:CINCINNATI -- The Bengals have reached a contract extension with one of the best players on their roster, as defensive end Trey Hendrickson signed a one-year deal through the 2025 season, the team announced Thursday.
The extension includes $21 million in new money, sources told ESPN's Field Yates, with a $5 million raise for 2023 and $16 million in 2025.
Hendrickson's original four-year, $60 million deal that he signed with the Bengals before the 2021 season was set to expire at the end of the 2024 season.
