Unlike T.J. Watt, Trey Hendrickson not reporting to the Bengals’ mandatory minicamp surprised precisely nobody who has paid attention. He has previously said that he is unwilling to play a snap on his current contract, so of course he won’t practice, either. But it’s always an extra layer when a player acts on a threat, so here we are.
Watt stunned fans and reporters when he didn’t show up to the Steelers’ minicamp yesterday. Bengals beat writers fully expected not to see him in Cincinnati, though, given his timeline. He has been very public about his frustrations with the team, and frankly, the feeling seems mutual.
