Commanders, Lions Lead Trey Hendrickson Trade Talks

News summary

Trey Hendrickson, a four-time Pro Bowl defensive end for the Cincinnati Bengals, is at the center of escalating trade rumors due to his stalled contract talks and demand for a $30 million annual salary. Both the Washington Commanders and Detroit Lions have emerged as leading contenders, with the Commanders reportedly offering Jer'Zhan Newton and two Day 3 picks, while the Lions could provide higher draft picks. The Bengals have publicly insisted on receiving first-round value for Hendrickson, but ongoing tension with the player and salary cap considerations may force them to accept less. The Commanders are pursuing Hendrickson to boost their playoff and Super Bowl chances, while the Lions could pair him with Aidan Hutchinson for a top-tier pass rush. Both teams must weigh the impact of Hendrickson’s contract on their salary cap and roster construction. With trade buzz intensifying and contract negotiations stalled, Hendrickson's future remains a major NFL offseason storyline.
