Bengals’ Orlando Brown Jr. weighs in on Trey Hendrickson contract dispute

Contract talks between Trey Hendrickson and the Cincinnati Bengals seem to never end. Orlando Brown Jr. provided his thoughts on the situation.

Hendrickson is seeking a major contract that will have him be among the highest-paid defenders in the NFL. He looks to be earning close to as much as Cleveland Browns star Myles Garrett, who had his own dispute with the Browns before securing a huge deal.

This resulted in the Bengals offensive tackle appearing on a June 20 edition of NFL on ESPN. He explained what’s going in the locker room as the two parties hope to have a compromise before the 2025 season starts.

“I think we got a very close locker room, first and foremost. Guys have talked to Trey, guys have talked to Shemar, even with Jamar and Tee, when they were going through what they were going through, we spoke to them. I mean ultimately, man, it’s the NFL; it’s a business. It’s part of it; these type of things happen. But I would imagine these deals get done hopefully sooner rather than later,” Brown said.
