Last year was not a good look for the Cincinnati Bengals‘ pass rush, ranking last in the league in sacks. To make matters worse, the Bengals lost Carl Lawson in free agency and he was their leader in sacks last year.

Cincinnati didn’t sit back and let their pass rush take a massive blow without doing anything though, as they signed former Saints pass rusher Trey Hendrickson over the offseason.
