Trey Hendrickson's contract dispute with the Bengals ended Monday as the two sides agreed to a one-year deal that effectively satisfies both parties' demands: Hendrickson gets more guaranteed money and a pay bump, and the Bengals don't have to commit to the edge rusher long-term.
As for that last point, there is speculation that, because this is a one-year deal and because of the drama involved in reaching it, Hendrickson might opt to test his value in the free agency market once this season concludes. The star DE still opened up about the future with Bengals.com's Geoff Hobson later on Monday.
