While Cincinnati’s defense has struggled for much of the past three seasons, Hendrickson has been a bright spot. Without their top edge rusher, the Bengals’ defense will have to stop the winless Jets to get back to .500.</p><p>Hendrickson was the center of contract drama during Bengals training camp. He finally agreed to a one-year deal that could bring his time in Cincinnati to an end after this season. But with newfound hope for the season with Flacco under center, Hendrickson will be leaned on for the rest of the season.</p><p>The Bengals’ defense dominated the first half, stopping a fourth-down try on the first drive and forcing a punt on the second drive. They allowed 13 points in the second quarter, but still held the lead. In the five drives he participated in, Hendrickson tallied just one tackle.</p><p>If the Bengals beat the Jets on Sunday, they will be 4-4 with a chance to win the AFC North. The Steelers are 4-2 heading into a tough Sunday night battle with the Green Bay Packers. For any chance to make noise down the stretch and get Joe Burrow into important games, the Bengals need their defense to step up. That starts with Hendrickson, who is playing for a contract.</p><p>The Jets and Bengals head into the fourth quarter with Cincinnati up 15 points. Will Hendrickson’s absence be key to the result?</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Hendrickson, who missed last week’s 33-31 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers with <a href="https://x.com/RapSheet/status/1982291092226895979" rel="noopener">a hip injury</a>, is officially “good to go,” according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. The 30-year-old took part in limited practice this week, and the team listed him as questionable on the final injury report.</p><p>Hendrickson has been a major contributor to the Bengals’ pass rush. In six starts this season, he has recorded four sacks and three tackles for loss. Last year, he led the NFL with 17.5 sacks and has compiled 81 sacks across 116 career games. This season, Cincinnati ranks 27th in sacks with 11 through seven games. Outside of Hendrickson, Joseph Ossai is the only other Bengal with at least two sacks this year.</p><p>Cincinnati is looking for back-to-back wins and holds a 2-1 record against New York in their last three matchups. The Jets have been outscored by 28 points in those contests, and the Bengals will hope to continue that trend. Cincinnati’s defense has faced challenges this season, allowing 257.1 passing yards per game (ranked 30th) and 30.6 points per game (31st).</p><p>The running defense has also struggled, giving up 137.3 yards per game on the ground (27th). Prominent contributors include Jordan Battle with 50 tackles and three interceptions, Demetrius Knight II with 50 tackles and one interception, Geno Stone with 42 tackles, two TFLs, one sack, and one interception, and Daxton Hill with 43 tackles and one interception.</p><p>Offensively, the Bengals rely heavily on Ja’Marr Chase, who leads the NFL with 58 receptions for 629 yards and five touchdowns on 80 targets. Tee Higgins has added 316 receiving yards and three touchdowns, while Chase Brown averages 3.6 yards per carry with 310 total rushing yards and one rushing touchdown. Quarterback Joe Flacco has passed for 1,376 yards, seven touchdowns, and six interceptions, completing 60.7% of his throws.</p><p>Kickoff at Paycor Stadium will take place at 1 p.m. ET.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Jeremy Fowler of ESPN<a href="https://x.com/JFowlerESPN/status/1982081173003063570" rel="noopener"> confirmed the update</a> on Saturday, ahead of the Bengals’ matchup with the New York Jets.</p><p>Last Thursday, Hendrickson <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cincinnati-bengals/bengals-news-trey-hendrickson-unlikely-play-steelers">didn’t play against the Pittsburgh Steelers</a>. In the end, the Bengals came out on top 33-31. On Oct. 12, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cincinnati-bengals/bengals-news-trey-hendrickson-locker-room-trainer-packers-game">Hendrickson injured his hip</a> during the Bengals ‘ game against the Green Bay Packers.</p><p>Cincinnati lost 27-18 to Green Bay. Currently, they are 3-4 and lost three out of their last four games. So far, Hendrickson has recorded 15 tackles and is averaging four sacks. Meanwhile,<a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/philadelphia-eagles/eagles-perfect-offer-trey-hendrickson-bengals-nfl-trade-deadline"> rumors of a potential trade</a> continue to permeate.</p><p>With Cincinnati,  Hendrickson has become a four-time Pro Bowl tight end and league leader in sacks. Altogether, he has developed into an effective pass rusher. Back in August, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cincinnati-bengals/bengals-news-cincinnati-trey-hendrickson-agree-to-30-million-contract-restructure">Hendrickson signed a $30 million contract extension</a>.</p><p>In 2017, he was drafted by the New Orleans Saints and played there for the first four seasons. Four years later, Hendrickson joined Cincinnati as a free agent. Twice, Hendrickson tied the franchise single-season record with 17.5 sacks in 2023 and 2024.</p><p>Along the way, he has 57.0 sacks, which is the third most in the NFL.</p><h2><b>Trey Hendrickson is the focal point of the Cincinnati defense </b></h2><p>For all his accolades, it is easy to explain why Hendrickson would be the go-to guy for the Bengals defense. His skill and strength is basically a quarterback’s worst nightmare. Also, when the defense <a href="https://wtop.com/nfl/2025/10/trey-hendrickson-proving-to-be-critical-piece-of-bengals-pass-rush/#:~:text=Hendrickson%20is%20the%20central%20figure,later%20to%20face%20the%20Steelers." rel="noopener">doesn’t record a sack</a>, that showcases the impact he has.</p><p>At the same time, his name arguably <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gByBX17_FbU" rel="noopener">would be heightened</a> if he had played for a more prominent franchise.</p><p>Part of that plays into the trade discussions with the prospect of him going to high profile teams such as the Eagles or Packers.</p><p>Additionally, Hendrickson is <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9M6Nbv0SVuk&amp;t=276" rel="noopener">very much a leader</a> to the younger players.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

In his last three games, Ja’Marr Chase has totaled four touchdowns on receiving lines of 101-94-161. His most recent game against the Steelers saw a franchise record and career-high 16 receptions, immediately making <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cincinnati-bengals/bengals-news-jamarr-chase-appreciates-joe-flacco-doing-1-job-getting-ball">Chase the go-to option for veteran Joe Flacco</a>.</p><p>Furthermore, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/new-york-jets/jets-garrett-wilson-sauce-gardner-both-out-for-bengals-matchup">Jets’ Sauce Gardner is officially ruled out for Week 8</a>, offering a serious gap in the New York secondary that could see both Chase and Higgins find the openings. The Jets’ defense is allowing the <a href="https://www.foxsports.com/articles/nfl/2025-nfl-defense-rankings-team-pass-and-rush-stats">ninth-fewest passing yards</a> to offenses this season, but they’ve given up the fifth-most passing touchdowns with 13 – this game is the perfect opportunity for Chase to feast in the red zone and pick up two touchdowns again this season since last doing it against the Detroit Lions in Week 5.</p><p><b>Jets’ Breece Hall (questionable) finally finds the end zone.</b></p><p>While the status of the bold prediction is still rather up in the air, Jets’ RB Breece Hall managed to practice fully on Friday, shedding a positive light on his ‘questionable’ designation with a knee injury. Hall should be able to go in Week 8 against a Bengals’ defense that’s allowed eight rushing touchdowns on the season.</p><p>Despite the 0-7 start, Breece Hall has remained ‘motivated’ to produce as one of the leaders of this offense. Without Garrett Wilson in the lineup and inconsistencies at quarterback, Hall becomes the most valuable offensive weapon for the Jets in this matchup.</p><p>Hall has been wildly effective this season with two 100-yard rushing games already, including 30 or more receiving yards in four games. However, it hasn’t translated to a single touchdown and the Jets’ could seriously use the points given their recent performances. I expect Breece Hall to finally find the end zone in this game as the entire offense hinges on his shoulders.</p><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/New-York-Jets-head-coach-Aaron-Glenn-leaves-the-field.jpg"><figcaption>Oct 12, 2025; Tottenham, United Kingdom; New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn leaves the field after an NFL International Series game against the Denver Broncos at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Kirby Lee-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p><b>Aaron Glenn and the Jets get their first win soon, but not this week.</b></p><p>As it stands, five of the Jets’ 10 remaining games are against teams below .500, including the New Orleans Saints and Miami Dolphins who both have just one win. With the anticipation of WR Garrett Wilson and DB Sauce Gardner returning in the near future, the Jets could still avoid a winless season if their most important players can get healthy.</p><p>However, there are just too many injuries at the moment and it seems as though they’re catching this Cincinnati team on the upswing. Quarterback Joe Flacco will do a great job of managing the game and getting the ball to Ja’Marr Chase, so don’t expect this to be the week where the New York Jets find their first win.</p><p><b>Justin Fields and Tyrod Taylor will both play QB for the Jets</b></p><p>Head Coach Aaron Glenn <a href="https://www.espn.com/video/clip/_/id/46711426">hasn’t shared much with the media</a> on who will start at quarterback in Week 8 following a lackluster performance from veteran Tyrod Taylor. The switch comes following 45-yard passing day from Justin Fields against the Broncos, but it’s clear neither player has been able to make a noticeable impact for this offense.</p><p>Aaron Glenn and his staff may have to get creative in using both quarterbacks in different passing and rushing situations. Justin Fields has shown massive upside as a ball carrier while Tyrod Taylor is the better game manager. The Jets’ could see some benefits in deploying both players in option sets with Breece Hall. At this point, nothing is off the table and it wouldn’t hurt to try something new.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He is dealing with a hip injury <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cincinnati-bengals/bengals-news-trey-hendrickson-unlikely-play-steelers">that kept him out of the Bengals’ Week 7 win</a> over the Pittsburgh Steelers.</p><p>Despite earning the victory, Cincinnati is well aware of what Hendrickson brings to the table. Before suffering his injury, the defensive end put up 15 tackles, eight quarterback hits, a forced fumble and four sacks.</p><p>Of course, the Bengals were well aware of Hendrickson’s prowess entering the year. Coming off of four-straight Pro Bowl appearances and a league-high 17.5 sacks, the pass rusher held out for a portion of the offseason in seek of a new contract. Cincy came up with a short-term plan, but they’ll again be in a tricky situation when it comes to Hendrickson over the offseason.</p><p>For now though, the Bengals are focused on the Jets. They’re already dealing with the loss of quarterback Joe Burrow. They need as many wins as they can get while he is on the shelf to give themselves a shot at the playoffs. If Cincinnati is able to earn a berth and Burrow is then healthy, they’ll be a much different team.</p><p>The same goes for Hendrickson. He is a wrecking ball and a fearsome foe for any quarterback when he is on the field. But whether or not Justin Fields/Tyrod Taylor faces him on Sunday is still up in the air.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The good news is that he’s back on the practice field and has <a href="https://x.com/Trags/status/1981757746270937526" rel="noopener">a chance of suiting up</a> in the next game, according to Mike Petraglia.</p><p>“Trey Hendrickson is questionable.

He played over 80% of the defensive snaps in four of the first five games, but just played 12 snaps in Week 6 and 26 in Week 8. His 19.7% snap share in Week 6 was the lowest of his career since his rookie season.</p><p>It’s uncertain if the Bengals will consider trading Wilson, but if they can get some good assets in return for him, it wouldn’t be a bad move to see what his value is around the league. At the same time, he’s still a crucial part of the team and could be a depth piece through the year if someone goes down with an injury.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The newly minted DC said before the season that the veteran linebacker would play a vital role in the revamped Cincinnati defense. Wilson was one of the better defenders on the Bengals over the last few years, being a key part of the team that went all the way to the Super Bowl in 2022 and the AFC Championship game in 2022.</p><p>However, through seven games, Wilson <a href="https://www.espn.ph/nfl/story/_/id/46597458/bengals-defensive-stalwart-logan-wilson-addresses-benching" rel="noopener">has seen his usage steadily decline</a> as his role was taken over by two rookies. The Bengals have chosen to go younger as the season progressed, trying out Demetrius Knight Jr. and Barrett Carter more over the veteran. That’s seemingly left Wilson a little disgruntled with his play.</p><p>Now, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/cincinnati-bengals/bengals-news-cincinnati-season-blow-logan-wilson-trade-request">Wilson has requested a trade from the Bengals</a> after steadily losing snaps over the last few weeks. The Bengals are likely going to oblige the veteran’s request. However, which teams should try to avail the linebacker’s services? Let’s look at three teams that should be calling Cincinnati to inquire about a Logan Wilson trade.</p><h2><b>San Francisco 49ers</b></h2><p>The 49ers already have reported interest in one of the Bengals’ top players. With the injury to Nick Bosa, San Francisco is reportedly interested in trading for star pass rusher Trey Hendrickson. With the many injuries to their defensive roster, it makes sense for the team to try and acquire more players to keep their playoff hopes alive.</p><p>The Bengals have already rebuffed suitors looking to acquire Hendrickson, believing they’re still in play for a playoff spot. If a Hendrickson trade doesn’t materialize, perhaps the 49ers can call about Wilson to fill another need on defense. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/san-francisco-49ers/49ers-news-san-francisco-replace-irreplaceable-fred-warner">Fred Warner is out for the season as well,</a> and San Francisco could use a veteran middle linebacker.</p><p>Wilson is one of the smarter linebackers in the league, and he’s still been reliable in spurts when the Bengals put him in. It can’t hurt the 49ers to try and trade for Wilson and see if he works in their system.</p><h2><b>Indianapolis Colts</b></h2><p> </p><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Bengals-linebacker-Logan-Wilson.jpg"><figcaption>Mandatory Credit: Katie Stratman-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The Colts already have the best record in the league so far. With a 6-1 record after Week 7, they’ve been the biggest surprise in the league so far. Despite their stellar record, though, the Colts are still looking for an improvement on the defensive end.</p><p>According to recent reports, the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/indianapolis-colts/colts-rumors-what-to-watch-for-trade-deadline-hot-start">Colts are looking to trade for a playmaker</a> on the defensive side of the ball to help them old. The Indianapolis defense has been solid so far, but there are clear holes at the linebacker and the pass rush that still need to be addressed.</p><p>Wilson could be one of the names that the Colts target at the trade deadline. Indianapolis DC Lou Anarumo worked with Wilson extensively in Cincinnati prior to this season. Wilson’s familiarity with Anarumo’s schemes could spark a resurgence in the linebacker. He should also help the Colts’ problems at the linebacker position.</p><h2><b>Dallas Cowboys</b></h2><p>When any defensive player is requesting a trade, the Cowboys should be one of the teams that are asking. It’s hard to get even worse than where the Cowboys are right now. While they had a solid showing in Week 7, the last six weeks of the NFL season have not inspired any confidence that Dallas can maintain their performance against the Washington Commanders in the succeeding weeks.</p><p>Part of their struggles this season is due to their linebackers’ struggles. With DeMarvion Overshown still recovering from a season-ending injury last season, the Cowboys have struggled to fill the gap left by the linebacker. It hasn’t been pretty, with the Cowboys getting gashed by the Carolina Panthers in Week 6 due to the linebackers struggling to get into their sets.</p><p>Wilson might have lost a step due to age, but he’s still a solid linebacker for a team. At the very least, he’ll most likely be better than anyone on the Cowboys’ linebacker group.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
