Trey Hendrickson's Season Likely Over Due to Core Muscle Surgery

Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson is scheduled for core muscle surgery this week, which is expected to sideline him for approximately six weeks, effectively ending his season. He hasn't played since Week 8, with the surgery decided after rest and rehab failed to improve his hip and pelvis injuries. Hendrickson recorded 16 tackles and four sacks in seven games this year and is not under contract for 2026.
