The Cincinnati Bengals have struggled mightily on defense and now find their all-world DE Trey Henderickson questionable for Thursday night’s game against the Steelers.
Hendrickson left the Bengals week 7 contest against the Packers with an apparent back injury – but this week he’s appeared on Cincy’s injury report with a banged-up hip.
Hendrickson led the NFL in sacks in 2024 and finished second in AP Defensive Player of the Year voting behind Broncos CB Patrick Surtain II.
The Bengals are currently ranked 31st in the league in total team defense, allowing 394.2 yards per game.
If Hendrickson can’t go, it could be another long night at Paycor Stadium.
