NFL Transfer: Colts pursue trade for Bengals star Trey Hendrickson

← Back



The Indianapolis Colts are moving into the spotlight as one of the main contenders for a blockbuster trade in the NFL. According to insider Jordan Schultz, they are among the teams pursuing All-Pro pass rusher Trey Hendrickson from the Cincinnati Bengals.

Contract dispute escalates

The 30-year-old defender, returning as NFL First-Team All-Pro and current sack king with 17.5 total sacks in 2024, finds himself in a stalemate with Bengals management. Despite reporting to training camp, he refuses to participate in practices due to an unresolved contract dispute.

Hendrickson enters the final year of his contract with a cap hit of $18.67 million and is demanding a multi-year lucrative extension. When negotiations stalled, he reportedly requested a trade early in the season.

Perfect connection with Colts

The Colts' interest is not coincidental. A four-year collaboration exists between Hendrickson and Indianapolis' new defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo from Cincinnati, where they achieved significant success together. Anarumo knows Hendrickson's abilities and playing style well.

Hendrickson's record over the past two seasons is impressive - 35.0 sacks out of 77.0 total in his career. The four-time Pro Bowl player ranks among the absolute elite of NFL pass rushers.

Financial challenge

The Colts have $17.7 million in available salary cap space. To meet the Bengals' reportedly high demands, they would need to be creative, possibly even including one of their current defensive players in the trade.

This potential deal could significantly strengthen the Colts' defensive line and make them a serious contender in the upcoming season.

DE BRUYNE'S FAREWELL TO ETIHAD FACES CHERRIES' ROAD INVINCIBILITY

Image
  May 20, 2025   Manchester City - AFC Bournemouth   Etihad Stadium, Manchester On Tuesday, May 20, 2025, Manchester City will face AFC Bournemouth in the 37th round of the Premier League. The match offers a likely farewell of the home star Kevin De Bruyne to Etihad Stadium against a team with excellent away form. Manchester City have won all seven of their Premier League home games against Bournemouth – only Arsenal (10 vs Stoke) and Manchester United (8 vs Wigan) have a better 100% home win rate against an opponent in the competition. The Citizens thus represent an insurmountable obstacle for the Cherries at their own ground. Bournemouth won the reverse fixture against Man City 2-1 in November, having been winless in their first 20 league meetings with the Citizens beforehand (D2 L18). The South England side thus achieved a historic success this season. Manchester City have won their final home league game in 10 of the last 11 seasons (D1), including each of the la...

Marks Could Be the Next Irving: NFL Draft 2025 Late-Round Gems

Image
  Bucky Irving proved last year that the fourth round can hide future stars. His 1,122 rushing yards and eight touchdowns made him the most productive rookie runner in the NFL. Now the search continues - which of this year's late picks will repeat similar success? The pattern is clear. Irving followed the path of Isiah Pacheco, Kansas City's seventh-round gem from 2022. Both had one thing in common - they weren't college superstars with astronomical numbers, but they proved efficiency and ability to maximize opportunities. Among this year's candidates, Marks from USC stands out most, selected by Houston in the fourth round. His transformation is remarkable - four years at Mississippi State never exceeded 600 yards per season, but a single season at USC brought 1,133 yards with impressive 6.8 yards per carry. Marks has an ideal situation for immediate impact. Joe Mixon ahead of him has injury history and Houston under new coordinator Nick Caley is looking for fresh b...
