Hendrickson is owed to make $15 million for the 2024 season.
The Bengals are in a tough position right now with Tee Higgins also requesting a trade and a big-money extension needed for WR Ja’Marr Chase.
Hendrickson, 29, was selected with the No. 103 overall pick by the Saints out of Florida Atlantic in 2017. He finished his four-year rookie contract worth $3,106,288, which included a signing bonus of $706,284.
Hendrickson then signed a four-year, $60 million contract with the Bengals back in 2021 and went on to appear in the Super Bowl for the team. Cincinnati signed him to a one-year extension through 2025 last year.
In 2023, Hendrickson appeared in all 17 games for the Bengals and recorded 43 tackles, 17.5 sacks, three forced fumbles and three pass defenses.
