The contract dispute between the Cincinnati Bengals and Trey Hendrickson took a wrong turn on Tuesday when the All-Pro edge rusher didn't report to training camp with the rest of the team's veteran players.

CINCINNATI — Bengals star pass rusher Trey Hendrickson didn't report for training camp on Tuesday and was officially placed on the NFL's Reserve/Did Not Report list. The 30-year-old wants a new contract and is hoping that his absence is felt and leads to a contract extension in the near future.

Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson: "There's no way I would be able to sit there in the house and hear the practice whistles while also being a distraction."

As the Bengals and Trey Hendrickson continue to battle it out over a new contract, the Browns may dodge the bullet of playing him twice per year.

We’re working to get Trey re-signed as we speak," Brown told the media. "Our guys are in the office working to get that done. And I think it will get done.”The Bengals' director of player personnel made his thoughts clear as well.

The Bengals are required to fine Hendrickson $50,000 for each day of camp he misses. In addition, any preseason or regular-season game he misses would result in $877,777 of salary lost, according to Spotrac.

Trey Hendrickson awaits a new contract, or at least a raise that would allow him to play in the upcoming 2025 season.
