The Cincinnati Bengals and first-round draft pick Shemar Stewart have yet to reach an agreement on a rookie contract, which has led to a rare holdout from the unsigned draft pick.
Stewart joined the Bengals for both rookie minicamp and regular minicamp, but during Rookie Mini Camp did not participate in any on-field drills and did the same in minicamp before leaving early and unsigned.
With the saga still ongoing, Stewart’s agent, Zac Hiller, joined Solomon Wilcots and Christian Fauria on SiriusXM NFL Radio Monday to talk more about Stewart’s reasoning for holding out and the latest on contract negotiations.
