Now look at where they stand for cash flow - not high. Remember that just this offseason they have laid out well north of 160 million in cash. Remember the Funding Rule. They're probably having to do gymnastics to figure out how to work in even more money to escrow for Trey.
And with Trey remember he signed an extension then started asking for more the very next offseason. The Bengals said no in part because by league rules they could not do another extension that quickly after the last one. I get Trey feels he is worth more than he is getting and hopefully they can get it done but his behavior here is actually refuting the argument for extending players early to shield against the market moving - if they're just going to hold out for more money anyway what's the point?
