As Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson learns his new team’s playbook, he said he sees more opportunity.
The biggest difference for him between Cincinnati’s playbook and the plays he ran with the New Orleans Saints will be how often he will run them during the season.
With the Saints in 2020, Hendrickson played just 53 percent of the team’s defensive snaps. After signing a four-year, $60 million deal this offseason with the Bengals, Hendrickson said he’s confident he’ll play a greater share of snaps.
“It’s going to be a unique opportunity to rush the passer and be used in different ways,” Hendrickson said.
