Early in the offseason, Joe Burrow made it clear that he wanted to see the Bengals reward Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Mike Gesicki, and Trey Hendrickson with new contracts.
Cincinnati has checked the box on three of the four players on the quarterback’s wish list. But Hendrickson remains displeased with the deal that is set to pay him $15.8 million in base salary in 2025, saying last week that he will not play on his current contract.
In his Tuesday press conference, Burrow once again backed Hendrickson.
“Yeah, we’ll see what happens with that,” Burrow said.
